Agfa Debuts New Anapurna Ciervo H3200 Hybrid Inkjet Printer at ISA International Sign Expo 2024

Carlstadt, NJ, USA – 4 April 2024

Agfa, a global leader in inkjet printing solutions, will showcase its latest addition to the Anapurna printer family, the Anapurna Ciervo H3200, at the upcoming ISA International Sign Expo (Orlando, Florida – April 10 to 12). Following its successful debut at the FESPA Global Print Expo in Europe last month, this cutting-edge wide-format hybrid printer is now ready to impress North American print service providers as one of Agfa’s new ‘power beasts’.

Next-gen technology

The Anapurna family continues to evolve since its introduction more than 20 years ago.  The new 3.2-meter hybrid Ciervo represents a significant advancement in print quality and speed – from 710 ft²/h in Production Mode up to 2,250 ft²/h in Draft Mode. With a redesigned print shuttle and engine, the printer delivers rapid throughput while maintaining superior print quality on both flexible and rigid materials.

The new Ciervo approaches any printing job with great agility, ready for whatever crosses its path, proving a perfect fit for printing companies looking for a versatile printer to tackle a wide range of print jobs. Featuring a six-color plus white ink set and UV LED curing, the Anapurna Ciervo H3200 delivers vibrant, high-quality prints across a wide range of applications. Its continuous board feeding capacity – able to print up to four boards simultaneously – ensures smooth printing on rigid materials and enhances productivity and workflow efficiency.

Visitors to Agfa’s booth (#1926) at the ISA International Sign Expo 2024 will have the opportunity to experience firsthand the speed, quality, and versatility of the Anapurna Ciervo H3200.

Powerful by Nature

“The new Ciervo is just one of three new power beasts from Agfa, the others being the 5.2-meter Jeti Condor roll-to-roll inkjet printer and the 3.3-meter hybrid Jeti Bronco,” says Ruben Silva, Vice President of Sales Inkjet, North America at Agfa. “Add these to the proven technology of the hybrid high-end Jeti Tauro and the highly productive flatbed Onset – now called Onset Grizzly – and you see that we have a great fit for any printing need. That’s also why we have rebranded our inkjet printer portfolio under the heading ‘Powerful by Nature’, emphasizing each printer has unique strengths built into its design. Whatever environment print service providers operate in, whatever their markets or applications, whether seeking high productivity, quality or versatility, we have the right beast for them.”

The Anapurna Ciervo will be powered, at the booth, by Agfa’s Asanti workflow software, a unique all-in-one print production hub that automates the print production process, saving time and money. The browser-based Production Dashboard offers insights into production time, ink and media usage, and interfaces seamlessly with MIS/ERP systems for optimized quotes and post-calculations. Asanti carries the G7® System Certification from Idealliance, confirming the ability to ensure uniform color reproduction across varied printing processes and substrates.
