Overview

|
Like its predecessor, Summa DC3 Plus, the new 54-inch, 8-color Summa DC4 prints images that are guaranteed outdoor-durable for up to 5 years without lamination. And of course, auto ribbon changing and ultra precise contour cutting are built right in. But our 4th generation DC-class printer does so much more. It accepts variable width media from 24 to 54 inches wide. And it has a host of new printing modes for higher resolution, faster printing and for printing on specialty films, including banner material. $19,999.00 |

Vibrant outdoor graphics that never need UV lamination, die-cut and ready-to-install
What good is print and cut if you have to laminate? Not much, for what many sign companies do most: permanent signs and vehicle graphics. That's the real difference between thermal resin and every other type of printing. With thermal transfer, images are installation-ready. So you just print, weed and apply.
Best of all, the new Summa DC4 is just as affordable as our older Summa DC3 Plus. Only $19,995, including our blazing-fast ColorControl RIP software.
