UVgel: One technology, no compromise

Enjoy precision quality for indoor graphics, durability for outdoor use, and instant curing, all at lower running costs.

Explore the benefits of UVgel

Colour gamut

Print creative applications with a spectacular colour gamut and use the optional white for multilayer applications. Print white gel like any other colour and overcome common clogging and maintenance issues faced by other white ink technologies.

Mixed matte/gloss finishing

The optional FLXfinish+ technology offers you a choice between a gloss or matte finish, and now even both on one print. All this without the need to change inks, media, or an extra varnish channel.

Intriguing textures

Print specialty applications with intriguing textures using our PRISMAguide XL software, sold separately and optional FLXture technology.

Low energy and gel use

Benefit from low running costs thanks to efficient gel and low energy usage, and Smart Guided Workflow that promotes first-time right printing, all from a single odourless system.

Uniformity, repeatability, colour consistency

The absence of heat in the curing process and the intrinsic gel properties in the Colorado XL-series contribute to prints having excellent uniformity, repeatability and colour consistency. From print to print, job to job.

Instantly dry and odourless

UVgel prints are robust, flexible, light-fast, and scratch-resistant, even immediately after printing, for a powerful impact across a broad range of applications.

A range of unique technologies to boost your business

UVgel 850 PrintHead technology with UVgel 860 gelset

At the heart of the Colorado XL-series is our in-house developed and manufactured UVgel 850 PrintHead technology. These are so advanced that we only need two printheads for the regular CMYK colours and an optional third printhead for printing UVgel White. Designed for productive, high-quality large-format graphics, each printhead has 4,544 nozzles, with automated nozzle monitoring and instant correction.

UVgel TRIdrive vacuum belt system

The Colorado XL-series introduces our unique UVgel TRIdrive (Three Roller Interactive) vacuum belt system. It’s designed to help limit errors at job start-up, for easy loading, highly precise media positioning and reliable unattended printing that helps users create razor-sharp applications that truly impress.

DynamicMotion Control

The Colorado XL-series has an agile and precise printhead carriage that features UVgel DynamicMotion Control. This helps to ensure exceptional print quality even with challenging media. It uses highspeed, high-resolution machine vision technology that actively tracks any micro movement of the media while the carriage is travelling. It recalibrates the printhead positioning on the fly for unmatched precision and alignment of print passes, helping to provide flawless results even at high speeds.

FullBeam Curing

Our unique FullBeam Curing opens up a world of high-end applications and incredible colour results. The curing beam is separated from the printhead carriage and can apply light continuously over the full width, up to 3.4 metres. You can cure up to five high-density layers, all in one pass, over the full width of the media. Securing perfect quality without UV banding.
