Gradations so fine, colours so vivid, it’s like
having an offset press on your production floor.
New Simitri HD polymerised toner offers high image quality
Newly Engineered Simitri HD Polymerised Toner
The particles in Simitri HD toner are extremely small and
consistent in shape, ensuring improved colour photo and
illustration quality, as well as razor-sharp reproduction of
text and line drawings. The toner’s smooth outer surface
and the even dispersion of wax and colour pigment offer a
great hold and a consistent finish for high image quality
across diverse media.
Increasing the value of documents, stabilising text and images for print
1,800 dpi equivalent x 600 dpi resolution
Documents are scanned at 600 dpi x 600 dpi resolution,
and thanks to Konica Minolta’s exclusive smoothing
technology, can be output at a stunning 1,800 dpi
equivalent x 600 dpi resolution. Colour photographs,
charts, and illustrations are reproduced in high precision
and fine detail.
Detailed Reproduction of Small Characters
Improving on the design of the previous smoothing
process that used software to control the halftone
screen, the bizhub PRO C6500 features newly developed
technology that controls the screen by adjusting the
exposure time of the engine’s lasers. Even text at small
point sizes are not only legible, but very clear.
Preventing Colours from Misaligning
Optical sensors monitor the colour registration mark on
the transfer belt, allowing for automatic correction of
misalignment between colours. Doing so helps to
improve the precision of colour output.
Text Enhancement
During printing, text data is isolated from image data and
processed to best enhance reproduction. Detailed
outlines are precisely defined, while reversed text and fine
text are optimised to clearly stand out.
Better Registration Accuracy for Two-sided Printing
New ADU Design
Built on a sturdy foundation of steel, the new ADU
(Automatic Duplex Unit) delivers precise, stable
performance. An additional conveyance roller is used to
reduce the skew of thick and coated paper, while
increasing overall paper feed capability.
Improved Image Alignment Sensors
The position of each sheet that passes through the PF-
601 Paper Feed Cabinet or the LU-202 Large Capacity
Unit is checked by a centring detection sensor. Then, the
sensor in the ADU checks the centring detection on the
reverse side of the sheet for image position in relation to
the measurement of the leading edge. This combination
of sensors helps to ensure high registration accuracy.
Fine-tuning Image Placement and Registration
Right from the touch panel, users can make slight
adjustments to image position in 0.1mm increments with
image shift, while magnification can be adjusted
separately for length and width in 0.01% increments. An
exclusive chart can also be printed and measured for
accuracy, enabling users to make on-screen registration
adjustments by tray when necessary.
Detailed Reproduction of Fine Lines
Simitri HD toner reproduces halftones and fine characters
with greater precision than conventional pulverised toner.
This gives documents a professional-looking clarity and
refinement.
As Durable as Printing Ink
New Simitri HD toner is resistant to fading and peeling
and has a long-lasting hold comparable to that of the ink
used in offset presses. Documents can be stored for long
periods of time and still retain the same high image
quality as the day they were printed.
Low Temperature Fixing Reduces Paper Stress
Low Temperature Fixing Reduces Paper Stress
The bizhub PRO C6500 affixes Simitri HD toner using
less heat energy than previous models. By reducing
excess heat, this fixing process minimises paper
stress during the fusing process.
The bizhub PRO C6500 features new technologies for high-accuracy two-sided printing,
while ensuring page numbers and images on two-page spreads are always aligned.
Stable Image Quality without Colour Aberration
The bizhub PRO C6500 can take on long print runs
without highly noticeable variation in image quality
between the first and last sheet. The transfer belt
features an optical sensor to monitor the density of toner
and provide instructions such as adjusting laser strength
and screen gradation. This ensures precise coverage
from beginning to end. Settings can be adjusted to
maximise stability and productivity for each job.
