We just recently acquired the Sinfonia (Shinko) CHC-S2145 printer and also because of the absence of evaluations around the web believed we would certainly write a brief testimonial. We originally pick the printer because of its high media ability and also the result rate, as we really did not wish to be for life packing media or have individuals waiting to accumulate their pictures.
For those that are not sure, a dye-sub printer makes use of warmth to move color from an ink bow onto the paper. They are preferred amongst the photo area because of their rate as well as additionally the reality it is publishing constant colour instead of specific dots like ink jet printers.
The very first point we discovered when opening up the printer container was the high quality of building and construction of the system, which is what you would certainly anticipate from a system made in Japan. It is rather hefty, considering in at 20kg without the paper roll and also ink bow, nevertheless the tactically put deals with on either side of the system make it simple to manoeuvre. The system has general measurements (in mm) of 296 size x 342 elevation x 416 deepness.
The printer includes a front loading style for simple loading of the paper roll, ink bow and also finishing standard upkeep jobs. Establishing the printer with the consumables is a wind many thanks to the colour collaborated packing pens.
The printer approves 6×4″ to 6×9″ media and also has the capacity to reduce 2×6″ strips (from the 4×6″ media set) which is the setup that we make use of for our picture cubicle. A basic 6×4″ paper and also bow set has an ability of 700 duplicates and also can publish each 6×4″ picture in as low as 7 secs. The picture leaves the printer flat at fairly a rate so it can quickly be placed within a box (such as an image cubicle) to hide the printer with a straightforward rectangular shape cut-out to permit the print to leave.
The benefit of utilizing a color sub printer is that it goes for a dealt with price per print despite the specific pictures features. This permits higher control over earnings margins.
Although the print outcomes are not those of a specialist digital photography laboratory you actually can not fail utilizing it as a printer for mobile occasion digital photography and also picture cubicles and so on
We have actually made use of the Sinfonia for a total amount of 3 occasions currently, each time the system runs efficiently with perfect outcomes. With an ability of 700 prints per roll we never ever need to bother with the media going out whilst at an occasion.
General the Sinfonia CHC-S2145 is a superb option for mobile and also occasion digital photography provided its expert outcomes, rapid print time and also high media ability.
