The new X4 Technology mode on the VUTEk h5 printer is a breakthrough in four-color production printing. With X4, users can achieve high-quality graphics at superior productivity, running up to 109 3.9x7.9' boards per hour in a CMYK x 2 configuration. The VUTEk h5 is available direct from EFI or as field upgrade to the VUTEk h3 printer, which can produce up to 74 boards per hour in X4 mode.
