Agfa :Jeti 3020 Titan, a 124” (3.15m) wide UV flatbed printer, now with roll-to-roll option
At ISA 2011 this printer was being exhibited for the second time, after its official launch at SGIA 2010. The difference at ISA 2011 was that the printer was being displayed with a roll-to-roll option.
With more than 3 meters, this model is one of the widest flatbed printers in the market. The list price is US$400,000. You get the roll-to-roll upgrade for US$70,000, which is a viable option considering a (reliable) roll-to-roll UV printer won’t be less than US$150,000.

It is usual that the Agfa Jeti machines print slowly at tradeshows, but this model can be upgraded from 16 printheads (1,215 sqft/h) up to 48 (2,439 sqft/h).
Printheads and Ink Colors
The basic model that has 16 Ricoh Gen 4 heads comes with CMYK but there are options in ink colors: W, light cyan, light magenta. Orange and green are still in R&D phase but they will soon be officially available. Varnish will also be available in the near future. The cost to add more colors or printheads will range from US$25,000 to US$50,000 depending on the quantity of heads desired.
