It s about delivering just the amount of color that makes a job effective a decision driven by the business objectives and requirements of the job not the limitations of a digital printing system. That s why we developed our industry-unique Océ Job Appropriate Color strategy, based on a single premise no one wants to pay more than they have to for anything.

What s more you can print both black & white and color in a single application, and only pay for what you print. If 20 percent of an application is color and 80 percent is monochrome, you pay for what you print. It s that simple. 4
Océ TriboPrint multi-stage imaging technology The cornerstone of the Océ VarioStream 9000 platform is unique TriboPrint multi-stage imaging technology, which combines multiple color stations in a removable Quick Change Color System (QCCS). With TriboPrint, any Océ VarioStream 9000 system can be customized with as few as two to as many as 10 color toner stations to support monochrome, highlight color, and full color as you need it. With Océ VarioStream 9000 systems you get the consistency you expect from a technology leader you trust. Ground-breaking, three-stage TriboPrint imaging technology combines multiple color stations, enabling black & white and up to five-over-five color, simultaneous duplex printing and contactless radiant heat fusing. All of which means you can count on the highest levels of print quality and consistency whether you re printing black & white or highlight color today or color tomorrow. Océ CustomTone: standard or special With proven Océ CustomTone technology, every color is developed individually, so you can print standard CMYK color and add Océ CustomTone custom-blended colors to print company logos all in a single run. The result is the perfect balance of accurate, consistent color reproduction and fast, easy access to the colors of your choice for a solution that s always job appropriate. Océ FlexiDark for consistent toner density For completely controllable and customizable output, Océ FlexiDark technology lets you set toner density as high or low as you want and still produce documents with even coverage, perfect consistency, no delays, and no compromises in fill coverage. A tight paper web ensures total media control and perfect registration on every document you print. Your choice of bi-level and multi-level quality For years, one of the biggest tradeoffs in digital presses has been between productivity and quality. Not so with the Océ VarioStream 9000 systems which can be flexibly configured for bi-level printing for simple black & white applications consisting of text, tables and vector graphics. For more complex applications with halftones, photographs and bit-mapped images, Océ VarioStream 9000 systems can be configured for multi-level printing at speeds up to 852 images per minute. Multi-level printing automatically modulates the dimensions of each dot to reproduce as many gray scales as the human eye can detect. The result is output with more depth, contour-free gradients, better halftones, an offset look and feel, and flexibility to print more applications on a digital press. By offering a choice of bi-level or multi-level quality, the Océ VarioStream 9000 platform delivers the perfect balance of competitive cost and productivity plus offset-class quality based on the requirements of each individual job. Designed for maximum ROI Océ VarioStream 9000 continuous feed printing systems are designed to deliver maximum return on your printer investment. The key is a competitive total cost of ownership combined with a cost-of-color breakthrough that enables you to do more with less. While other color systems cost more to run, Océ VarioStream 9000 technology gives you what you want a competitive cost for color printing and a lower cost per page for black & white, extending Océ s industry-leading reputation for the lowest total cost of ownership. The Océ VarioStream 9000 is an all-in-one system designed for remote management and control with minimal operator intervention, shorter setup times, and high-speed performance. 5

And they re backed by the awardwinning Océ service organization, recognized in the industry for best-in-class service excellence. Peace of mind with Océ TonerSafe Changing toner bottles is not only quick and easy, it s also secure with Océ TonerSafe technology. Whenever an operator inserts a new toner bottle into the printer, the system checks the RFID tags on the bottle to make sure they match the Océ Quick Change Color Station. This prevents operators from printing jobs with the wrong color toner. It also helps prevent damage to the color station. If the toner in the bottle does not match the color station or cannot be identified, the operator cannot load toner into the system. 6
