The Fujifilm Revoria PC2120 will see its official UK launch at an event in Luton on July 14th with Jet Tech Group hosting alongside partners including XMPie, Imprint MIS, and Plockmatic Group
Print equipment supplier, Jet Tech Group, is set to host a UK launch event for the Fujifilm Revoria PC2120 print-on-demand (POD) production press on July 14th, following its unveiling to the European market earlier this month.
The event, which will take place at the Fujifilm Innovation Centre in Luton, will include a morning session from 10am to 12pm, with an afternoon session from 1:30pm to 3:30pm. Those wishing to attend the event can register on the Jet Tech website.
The PC2120 is the new flagship model in Fujifilm’s Revoria Press series for high-end professional printing. Building on the technology of the previous Revoria PC1120, the PC2120 introduces more advanced AI-driven automation, an expanded colour gamut featuring a newly developed green toner, and one-pass six-colour printing using CMYK plus two speciality toners.
A defining feature of the new PC2120 is its UV-activated fluorescent green toner. By pairing this with the established fluorescent pink toner, the machine can output highly vibrant shades that Fujifilm claims closely replicate the bright RGB colours seen on digital displays.
Operating together, these supplementary green and pink toners are reported to widen the printable colour spectrum, covering 93% of Pantone spot colours.
The PC2120 also simplifies wide-gamut speciality colour printing with features like automatic colour separation, converting RGB data into CMYK layers plus green and pink specialty layers, thereby reducing the time and complexity of prepress editing.
Other AI-driven automation tools such as Substrate Profiler can continuously adjust registration and colour consistency during production, reducing setup time and operator intervention.
Jet Technology Group will unveil the technology in its first public showing on July 14th at the Fujifilm Innovation Centre in Luton, giving visitors an opportunity to experience the platform first-hand.
The launch event will be supported by Fujifilm, XMPie, Imprint MIS, and Plockmatic Group, with the aim of showcasing a seamless end-to-end production workflow, from online ordering and estimating through to advanced finishing for digital die-cut print and packaging applications.
A major discussion point at the event will also be the growing demand for variable data and digitally printed packaging applications, driven by the global transition from traditional barcodes to next-generation 2D QR codes and GS1 DataMatrix codes.
Unlike conventional barcodes, which carry only a fixed product number, the new GS1-compliant 2D codes can contain more dynamic data including traceability data, sustainability credentials, origin information, and interactive consumer experiences.
Jet Tech is the first partner in the UK to achieve the Ultimate Partner status within Fujifilm's Thrivve Partner programme, granting them the rights to sell and support Fujifilm's entire range of POD products, including the Revoria PC2120.
At the ‘Make More’ Partner Conference which hosted the European launch of the PC2120, Jet Tech also won the European Partner of the Year award, recognising the company’s commercial growth, its technical expertise with Fujifilm equipment, and its developing offering to UK print businesses.
