Brother and its subsidiary Domino have taken the wraps off the new N730i digital colour label press at Labelexpo Southeast Asia, in an ASEAN first, delivering on high quality output, high speeds, and printing efficiency.

Built on Domino’s latest Generation 7 inkjet technology, the N730i delivers on 1,200dpi print quality, combining precision with speed. This digital label press is equipped with Brother’s BITSTAR printhead, ensuring exceptional print quality at the standard operating mode of up to 70m/min across all colours, including high-opacity white.

It is upgradable to the high-speed productivity mode, supercharging printing to a maximum speed of 90m/min – boosting productivity by 28 per cent.

Brother commercial Thailand digital printing senior business development executive Vuthilert Kanjanaharitai said this digital press enables businesses to streamline their production processes, reduce waste, and meet the evolving demands of their customers with precision and reliability.

“The upgraded N730i high-speed productivity mode allows users to increase print speeds with no perceptible difference in print quality, compared to the standard operating mode. Users will also see a 28 per cent boost in productivity and reduce production time by 22 per cent, all while reducing ink usage by up to 8 per cent,” he said.

“These benefits reduce the cost per label and enable more jobs to be completed per shift, allowing users to maximise their return on investment and meet the growing demands of the label printing industry.”

At the event, Brother and Domino also provided more information on several of its other machines including:
