It is the answer to the reduction of run lengths, shorter delivery times, personalisation and versioning, and the production of on-demand print runs.
The AL 230 offers outstanding productivity, brilliant image quality and surprising ease of use, making it the perfect tool to diversify into new markets and use in conjunction with existing analogue machines.
