Pitney Bowes is launching a new production colour printing system for high-volume transactional mailers. The new offering, called the Pitney Bowes IntelliJet Printing System, is the result of an alliance with HP.

The company said that the Pitney Bowes IntelliJet Printing System provides integration for large transactional mailers to enhance revenues and streamline operations.

The Pitney Bowes IntelliJet Printing System is expected to grow to a family of high-volume colour production printing systems. The first model, the Pitney Bowes IntelliJet 30 Printing System, based on the HP T300 Colour Inkjet Printing System, produces transactional statements without compromising speed or quality, the company claims.

In addition, the Pitney Bowes IntelliJet Printing System operates at 400 feet per minute with a 30 wide format and addressable 1200 x 600 dpi colour quality. Customers can produce 4-up 7 forms at up to 3,490 impressions per minute, and 3-up 8.5 forms at up to 2,600 impressions per minute.

Leslie Abi-Karam, executive vice president, Pitney Bowes, said: There is tremendous pressure today on printed business communications to deliver higher value when costs are rising and growth is scarce. We listened to our customers, and we’re very excited to provide the only integrated print and mail solution in the industry. We can help cut operational costs and deliver higher-value transactional and transpromotional mail for growing revenues by acquiring, retaining and cross selling to customers.
