advanced features are incorporated into the Z43, yet it boasts sleek design and
compact size. |

ever. Its single imaging cartridge with bi-mode capability eliminates the need
to change cartridges for bi-mode printing. Now positive prints can be obtained
from both positive and negative films without the need to physically change the
imaging cartridge. |

| Simplified operation
through a host of automatic features |
| |
Automatic Exposure Control with Micro-Toning
You can expect consistent high-quality prints, from every type of film, and even
films of varying density, thanks to the exclusive electronic automatic exposure
control system. Adding to that, the micro-toning system ensures high-contrast
prints. For handling images with special requirements, a manual exposure control
will enable you to specify light and dark settings.
|
| |
True Bi-Mode Printing with Automatic Mode Sensor (optional)
The Z43 has a true bi-mode printing unit to eliminate the need for changing
toner cartridges or even film type settings manually. The sensor allows the Z43
to automatically determine the film type so you get a positive printout whether
you are using negative or positive film. The Z43 ensures accurate photo
interpretation every time. |
| |
Masking (optional)
The Z43 offers both automatic frame masking and manual image masking. Manual
image masking gives you the ability to mask unnecessary information by simply
depressing LED buttons to mark that area. This ensures that you get only the
information you need. Automatic frame masking eliminates the heavy black borders
that make prints look sloppy and waste valuable toner. |
| |
Automatic Skew Correction (optional)
Automatic skew correction adjusts up to 30° for images that were slanted during
the filming process. Use it and you won’t have to make minor adjustments for
each misaligned frame; the Z43 will do it for you. |
| |
Automatic Centering (optional)
The automatic centering feature repositions off-centered screen images prior to
printing (maximum vertical and horizontal deviation of 4/5“ (20mm). It’s
especially effective for consecutive printing with automatic frame retrieval of
multiple images. |
| |
Automatic Image Rotation (optional)
The optical automatic image rotation senses images from either portrait or
landscape orientation and automatically rotates them for printing. |
| |
Productivity Plus Package
This optional kit offers the following in one complete set: auto skew
corrections, auto masking, auto centering and auto image rotation. |
| |
Centralized Front Panel Operation
All vital controls are centralized on the Z43’s front panel for easy operation.
The panel displays easy-to-follow operating instructions, making the Z43
exceptionally user friendly. What’s more, with its easy-to-reach paper-supply
cassette, the Z43 dispenses prints from the front, allowing you to complete work
without having to leave your seat. |
| |
Fast Output
The Z43 prints up to 10 pages per minute, with the first print in 10 seconds –
ideal for busy libraries, schools, public-access archives, and local government
offices. |
| |
Environmentally sound
The Z43 is constructed with recyclable parts, and uses non-toxic, organic
photoconductive drums, a sounder choice for the environment. These
photo-conductors enable copying on recycled paper, and reduce the noise level in
the usage environment.
The Z43 accommodates all types of microforms with a wide variety of carriers for
all your application needs. Whatever your preference: smooth and steady film
transport is guaranteed – even in slow motion.
