Formax presents the Colormax8 Digital Color Printer, a versatile new addition to the Colormax family. The Colormax8 is powered by the same Mem jet print technology as the Colormax7 with the added capability of printing on media up to 3/8 inches thick. It's wider, flatter paper path makes it easy to print on various media surfaces and thicknesses making it more than just an envelope printer. The 7-inch full-color touchscreen provides users with complete control over the entire print process including electronic thickness control. Simply select the media thickness and the Colormax8 adjusts itself. The color panel also allows users to store and recall up to 60 gigabytes of print jobs with full-color image preview. The Colormax8 is ideal for short-run on-demand color print jobs on a wide variety of media including 10 x13” envelopes, number 10 envelopes printed in landscape mode for faster production speeds up to 8,000 per hour, number 10 envelopes in portrait mode for dazzling full bleed color images, padded mailing envelopes in a variety of sizes, coin envelopes, corrugated boxes, and more. The revolutionary print technology uses more than 70000 ink jets to produce brilliant CMYK images up to 1600x1600 dpi. With no moving parts, the printhead is quiet, incredibly fast and energy efficient, and offers the ability to print full bleed images on media up to 8.7” wide. The print process doesn't require heat or contact to create an image so it can safely be used with pre-printed media and windowed envelopes without damaging the window or marring the original image. To complement the Colormax8 try our durable inkjet coated CM envelopes, see how the colors are even richer and more vibrant. Send your mailing packaging and marketing pieces to a whole new level with full-color full bleed multimedia printing on the Formax Colormax8.
You can expand your setup with a conveyor stacker, cabinet stand, RIP software, ink tanks, extra RIP licenses, and remote setup/troubleshooting support.
Not for basic operation. The printer works out of the box. However, cmColor RIP software is recommended for advanced color management, PDF 2.0 workflow, and variable data printing.
Yes! The wide, flat paper path and up to 3/8” thickness support allow you to print on padded envelopes, chipboard, cartons, flats, and other thicker media.
The ColorMax8 is the base printer unit. The ColorMax8C includes both the printer and the 3’ conveyor stacker (CJ-10) in one bundled package. This is ideal for users who need automated output handling.
