User manual MINOLTA DRYPRO 876 BROCHURE

[. . . ] The body has the compactness of a small copier, but offers the same high performance as our larger flagship machine. With a throughput of 180 sheets (mixed sizes) per hour, the DRYPRO 873 dramatically improves productivity in all your printing work. *1: As of August 2008 Five-size print capability and the world's smallest design (*2) The DRYPRO 873 comes in a less imposing compact body only 1150 mm in height and boasts a footprint of just 0. 35 m2, while providing five sizes (in operation 3 sizes at the same time) of printing film ranging from 14"x17" to 8"x10". [. . . ] The film is available in a vivid blue base type (SD-Q), clear base type (SD-QC) or high maximum density type for mammography (SD-QM), to allow selection of the appropriate film for the application. One pack of daylight package contains 125 sheets that can be handled under room light. For digital mammography The combination of the optical unit (43. 75 Ìm) that enables detailed recording and the newly developed image recording film SD-QM can support a maximum density D of 4. 0. As for daily maintenance of mammography, this imager can support mammography QC patterns for film density control. Unparalleled image stability and high-speed tech nology!The pursuit of dry image quality has entered a ne w dimension. Selected as the development temperature since development speed is high and density change is small relative to temperature change. Positioning time The logic of fast printing - High-speed thermal development process For the DRYPRO 873, the film development process has been fully reviewed to respond to fast, highvolume processing. The film is pre-heated from the early stage of film transfer. Unstable temperature regions are minimized when heating the film, and by dividing the thermal development unit into five parts and closely controlling the process, excellent density stability and fast, high-volume processing have been achieved. Ten sheets of 14"x17" film can be printed in the rapid time of under four minutes. It's small because it's fast Rapid cooling process For increased printing speed, in addition to faster image formation a completely new control has been added to the cooling process at the final stage of printing. This film temperature history control system controls both heating and cooling to rapidly cool films after image formation. By reducing cooling time to around 1/4 that of previous equipment and halting thermal development with high precision, stable images can be swiftly obtained even in centralized systems. As well as increasing print speed, the faster cooling time means the unit is now much slimmer and more compact. It's fast because it's small The shortest film path structures The hardware for the DRYPRO 873 has been completely redesigned for compactness and fast/high-volume processing. The use of a feed roller system for the film supply unit, adoption of a platetype heating unit, and various other strategies for reducing size have contributed to the shortest film path structure. Speed and compactness combine at a new level in the DRYPRO 873. A first print time of 50 seconds. [. . . ] Avoid leaving the film in a car in daytime, or using it with a hot lamp etc. (3) As the film is susceptible to strong sunlight as well as temperature, avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, or leaving it on a viewing screen for a long time.
