Summary
When it comes to disc production in high volumes, the Microboards MX series is hard to beat in terms of speed, ease, quality, reliability, and cost. At a cost per disc of only 11 to 18 cents for a typical full-coverage print and as low as 2 cents for light, text-only coverage, you can produce professionally finished CDs and DVDs for a lot less than it would cost to outsource production. You get the same or better quality with a solution built on proven HP inkjet technology, including vibrant HP Vivera inks and the highest (4800 x 1200 dpi) resolution. And our 4th generation disc handling technology reduces vibrations during the printing process, so you’re assured smooth, clean text and images on finished discs.
A 100-disc capacity and throughput of over 500 discs per week (for the MX-2) mean you can effortlessly produce discs in mass quantities. Simply set up your project and walk away; the MX/PF-Pro series, with Microboards’ enhanced automation for reliable loading and unloading of discs, handles the rest.
The MX/PF-Pro series includes the MX-1 Disc Publishers , with one high-speed 20X DVD/48X CD recorder, enabling you to record or copy virtually any disc format, including Dual Layer. Also included in the series is the autoprinter-only version, the PF-Pro High Volume Printer , which utilizes the MX's powerful print engine.
Blu-ray versions of the MX disc publishers are also available, with 8x recording speed. The MX Blu-ray versions also record and print DVDs and CDs.
