Intimus GC208 Gutter Cut Business Card Slitter Review
The Intimus GC208 Business Card Slitter is designed for creating small runs of high quality full bleed business cards without the need to outsource. Any organization with a color copier and a frequent need to order business cards will find that the GC208 pays for itself quite nicely. It is ideal for printers, copy shops, in-plant print shops and human resource departments looking to produce their own high quality, full bleed business cards. The GC208 comes with a CD on which you will find templates to help with the layout of your business cards in four popular applications: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher, Quark and Illustrator. Here are some of the strengths and weaknesses of the Intimus GC208 Business Card Slitter.
Strengths / Features:
- Although there are a number of different business card slitters available on the market, the GC-208 is one of the only gutter cut business card slitters that is commercially available. It is designed to produce high quality full bleed business cards out of letter sized sheets printed on your color laser printer or photocopier. By overprinting the template, it is possible to have your graphics run to the very edge of for full bleed business cards.
- The GC208 business card slitter is capable of completing up to 300 finished business cards per minute. This is fast enough for commercial applications where speed and productivity are essential.
- This machine has a feeder that is capable of handling a stack of sheets up to 5/8″ thick. You can load the sheets into the feeder, place the weights on top of the stock and let the machine do its work.
- The GC208 is a floor standing unit that comes mounted on castors. The business card slitting unit is mounted on a special waste bin for no-mess production. Plus, the whole unit is mounted on wheels to allow you to push the unit out of the way when it is not in use.
Weaknesses / Limitations:
- The GC208 business card slitter requires a two step operation for cutting business cards. First, you feed the letter sized sheets into the lower station of the machine and it cuts them into two 3.5″ strips and cuts the waste off the sides. Then you feed the cut strips sideways through the upper station to separate the four, full bleed imprinted cards. It’s best to do all of your length-wise cuts, and then all of your side-ways cuts. Although the machine is fast (300 cards per minute) cutting business cards is still a hands on process.
- Because full bleed imprinting requires an overprint on all four sides of the card, the GC208 is limited to producing only 8 cards per 8 ½” x 11″ sheet.
- The cutting heads are not adjustable, the GC208 cuts only standard size business cards and accepts only 8 ½” x 11″ stock.
Recommendation:
- The GC-208 is an excellent cost effective business card slitter for producing high quality full bleed business cards from letter sized sheets of paper.
- With speeds of up to 300 cards per minute the GC208 is ideal for print shops, binderies, copy shops and for organizations who want to produce their own high quality business cards in minutes rather than waiting days or weeks from outsourcing.
- The productivity offered by this unit can help to justify its cost in no time at all.
- However, the GC208 is only designed for cutting business cards that are printed 8 up on the page. Users who want to cut cards that are printed 10 up or 12 up on a sheet will need to consider a different machine.
