Production presses — Canon imagePRESS, Konica Minolta AccurioPress and Ricoh Pro. 60 to 136 pages a minute, built for print rooms and in-plant shops rather than offices.
A press is not just a faster copier. The paper path is engineered for heavy and coated stock, the registration holds tight enough for duplex work that has to line up, the duty cycles run into the millions of pages a month, and the finishing goes well beyond a staple — saddle-stitched booklets, multi-folding, perfect binding and Fiery controllers for colour management and imposition.
If you are printing over about 100,000 pages a month, or selling print to customers, this is the class of machine you need. Below that, a fast office MFP usually costs less to own.
Buying used is where a press makes the most sense — a machine that cost six figures new comes off a short lease at a fraction of it, with the meter published so you can see exactly what life is left.
