THE INNOVATION
THAT CHANGES THE GAME
The future of graphic arts has begun with Konica
Minoltas high-quality power innovation for colour, the
bizhub PRESS C8000.
New opportunities
Creating new print applications, providing new service
opportunities, plus extreme cost savings for greater profits
from higher margins these are key aspects you benefit
from with the bizhub PRESS C8000. And its all thanks
to Konica Minoltas digital colour press offering you a
variety of inline finishing choices from stapling to perfect
binding; highest media flexibility (300 gsm from all trays,
350 gsm from PFU trays); and comprehensive variable data
printing features as well as robust support of web to print
workflows.
Impressive quality
Stand out from the competition in the market place and
ensure new business with existing customers thanks to
amazing colour quality on par with offset. Such results are
guaranteed with Simitri HD+ polymerised toner for precise
text and lines, automated density control for consistent
colour reproduction and highest registration for accurate
duplex printing.
Durable performance
You achieve more print jobs in the shop and meet tightest
schedules with ease, helping you grow your business and
feel relaxed about the future. The key for your success is
the bizhub PRESS C8000 with its high productivity of up
to 80 pages per minute in colour as well as black & white;
maximised uptime thanks to tools like CS Remote Care and
Customer Maintenance Support; and high-performance
controller technologies that secure fastest turnarounds.
From now on, also short-run printing is lucrative for you,
thanks to almost no preparation and digital workflow
automation.

Screen technology
Also thanks to the 1,200 dpi resolution, the bizhub
PRESS C8000 provides additional screens for higher
quality prints, enabling smoother and more realistic
image reproductions that are a perfect match to print
data.
ITbit technology
The outline processing improves the appearance of
characters by thinning them so they do not appear fat.
Contour processing helps to reproduce white characters
on backgrounds with ideal proportions and reduces
jagged edges of half-tone characters.
Image stability
A short interval stability control monitors image consistency on the bizhub PRESS C8000 during continuous
printing without affecting performance. Corrections are
fully automatic and improve the stability of the image
quality, while the whole process considerably enhances
production efficiency.
Density control
The gradation correction function meets the varied
characteristics of different media by correcting the
gradations according to the paper used. Key operators
benefit from enhanced efficiency, as they no longer need
to go through the time-consuming process of producing
test patterns.
Simitri HD+
The bizhub PRESS C8000 utilises Konica Minoltas thirdgeneration Simitri HD polymerised toner for enhanced
image quality and low-temperature fusing even of thick
paper. Simitri HD+ ensures the precise reproduction of
dots and narrow lines and with that achieves a natural
lustre nearly on par with offset printing.
Skew detection
Thanks to a skew detection system that controls the skew
amount after the leading edge of the paper has been fed,
the bizhub PRESS C8000 produces prints with highest
accuracy.
DIGITAL
Digital1234
The Digital1234 business development program
is designed to encourage print businesses
to focus on the opportunities to save money,
increase profits, add new services and to
improve productivity.
Using four practical steps the customer is
guided and coached on how to identify,
assess, justify and implement new business
opportunities.
Workflow
Did you know that for every euro spent on print, another
six euros is spent on the process surrounding the actual
printing?
This is often called workflow and is the key to achieving maximum efficiency and reducing manual touch
points!
The more you automate this process, the more improvements in efficiency you can achieve.
Improving your workflow is the best place to focus your
attention to get better business results.
Workflow can shorten the distance between you and
your customers.
A good example of automation is a combined hybrid
workflow.
It provides the ultimate production flexibility and
maximises the utilisation of both your digital and
offset equipment.
This allows you to calculate the financial cross over
point between digital and offset; you can choose
at the last minute which technology is most cost
efficient.
The essence of a good production workflow can be
summarised in one sentence: The less time you spend
on the technology of print production, the more time you
can spend on your important tasks.
Web to print
In the past all print jobs were submitted and
processed manually.
With the rise of Internet usage, most printer
businesses have recognised the value to offer
customers a web portal where they can submit
their print jobs.
Web submission includes: uploading the print
data, getting a price quote, getting a proof,
tracking information on the status of the print job,
automatic link to payment and administration, etc.
Web to print enables your company to be online
24/7, to automate the print job submission
process, improve efficiency, eliminate manual
elements in the job submission process.

ALL-ROUND AVAILABILITY
Professional printers simply need dependable hardware and highly reliable printing technology. Which is why reliability
was a top priority in the development of the bizhub production printing systems. Its quality of workmanship and robust
metal construction guarantee absolutely sound and secure operation. Various tools and system features enhance the
all-round usability further:
CS Remote Care
Via CS Remote Care, Konica Minoltas remote service
tool for counter readings, system errors and maintenance requirements of the bizhub PRESS and PRO
systems can be automatically transmitted to the Konica
Minolta service.
This enables early analysis of the system status and
preventive maintenance if required, before concrete
problems occur. It also helps minimise system downtimes and administrative efforts on user side, saving
print providers time and money, helping them keep their
sanity, and offering them the benefits of virtually allround system availability and maximised productivity.
