VALEZUS T2100

Launch period

Fall 2019

Rollout will begin in North America and Europe. Launch dates in Japan and elsewhere in Asia are to be determined.

Main features of the VALEZUS T2100

High Productivity

1) Capable of 320ppm high speed cut sheet printing

The VALEZUS T2100 can print 320ppm*1 or 19,200 pages per hour*2 , based on full-color, double-sided printing of A4-sized paper. Because the VALEZUS T2100 is a cut sheet printer, it can easily handle short-run jobs as well, enabling speedy processing of a diverse range of jobs.

*1 Continuous printing of A4-sized paper with long-edge feed on standard settings
*2 Not including cleaning time

2) Incorporation of newly developed high-capacity feeder/stacker units that enable paper loading/unloading during continuous printing

The VALEZUS T2100 is equipped with two high-capacity feeder/stacker units, each capable of feeding and stacking up to 4,000 sheets (total of 8,000 sheets). The two units can be switched while the printer is active, allowing users to load/unload paper without stopping the job. Also, the stacker unit is equipped with a jogger mechanism and dedicated cart, enabling smooth transition to post-processing after printing.

* The feeder/stacker units are scheduled to be available in the spring of 2020.

3) Compatible with PDF, PostScript® as well as AFP/IPDS

The VALEZUS T2100 can fit in existing workflow of customers. It supports PDF and Postscript, generally used in an open system environment as well as AFP/IPDS, which is used as an industry standard for mission-critical production print applications.

4) Oil-based ink complements environmentally-conscious printing by low energy consumption

The VALEZUS T2100 incorporates an inkjet system that adopts oil-based inks ensuring energy-saving operation. Oil-based inks contribute to energy-saving because there is no need for ink-drying heaters required for water-based inks, and unlike toner-based technologies, there is no heat-fixing process required.

Ohmium Breaks Barriers: Exceeds 2030 Industry Targets of 10 GW/ton to Achieve 18 GW/ton Iridium Utilization13.11.2025 09:05:00 CET | Press release

Ohmium International Inc., a leading provider of cutting-edge, high-efficiency, and modular Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, has surpassed the PEM electrolyzer industry's 2030 target of 10 GW per ton to attain an 18 GW per ton iridium utilization rate. Ohmium has made significant technological advancements which have resulted in reducing its iridium usage by 50% in its Lotus electrolyzer, Mark 2. This enhances the cost-competitiveness of green hydrogen production by reducing the overall cost of its PEM electrolyzers, which have been impacted by the cost of the precious metal, iridium. Dr. Chock Karuppaiah, Ohmium Chief Science and Technology Officer, said, "We've made significant strides in reducing iridium usage in our PEM electrolyzers, exceeding the 2030 industry target of 10 GW per ton. We've achieved a utilization rate of 18 GW per ton. This innovation is crucial, as iridium is one of the most expensive materials in electrolyzer manufacturing.” Dr. Markus Tacke, Ohmiu
