The secret of great reliabilityA unique paper path design is one of the Digimaster Systems’ secrets of high-performance printing. A proven paper feed and short, straight, waist-level path through the imaging and fusing modules − without any low vertical points − keep paper movements on an even keel, minimizing paper jams. Fewer jams translate to optimised production.
