Getting to the Finisher Line

It's not how you start, it's all about the finishing options on a digital copier. If you're looking at a Xerox 6100 or Kodak NexPress 9110, then you need to know the finishing options that are available. Sorters and staplers are often referred to as finishers on digital copiers.

The high end digital duplicators offer optional three-hole punches or folders. Make sure you always know the paper size limit for the optional sorters or folders. Sometimes, the finishers only work with manual input trays, limiting a print run to 100 copies at a time and creating an environment that requires a larger amount of operator intervention.

As digital production presses are used to replace offset presses, the finishing options are becoming more impressive and able to handle larger print volumes. The custom publishing industry is driving the market expansion of color digital copiers with the Xerox iGen3 becoming the standard bearer.
