VersaCAMM VPs were engineered from the ground up for easy operation and maintenance with a new compact design tailored for general office and retail environments. A new redesigned LED panel features simplified menu commands for standard operations such as cleaning, test printing, setting origin point and implementing user-defined printing conditions. Media setup is easy as well with eight media presets for print/cut, cutting and heater temperature.

An integrated heating system, which can be set from 95° to 122°F, helps ECO-SOL MAX ink bond to both uncoated and coated media and dry faster. For ease of use, the heating system is controlled from the printer as well as the computer. For energy efficiency, a single source of power runs both the heating system and print/cut mechanism.

The VersaCAMM VP delivers superior media handling, allowing you to experience optimum performance on a wide variety of media options. Upgraded media flanges and seven pinch rollers secure the heaviest media in place for accurate feeding and tracking through even the longest production runs. Adjustable print heads enable you to accommodate variable media thicknesses.

VersaCAMMs also feature both long and short removable media guides which are essential when using media with edge curl tendencies. These guides can be removed easily for print/cut applications.

VersaCAMM VPs feature an automated cleaning system which allows for immediate printing at any time, even if the machine has been idle for an extended period of time.
