Condé Systems has introduced the DyeTrans GX e3300N, the latest addition to the line of Ricoh ink jet printers for dye-sublimation.
Condé's claim the new printer features Ricoh's latest high performance print technology, up to 8.5"x14" media output, built-in 4-colour ink delivery system, a 250-sheet paper tray, and an optional 100-sheet multi-bypass tray. 
"We've seen the dye-sublimation industry grow at an amazing pace in the last few years," said David Gross, President of Condé. "A great example of this growth has been the introduction of Ricoh printers into the Epson dominated desktop market. With a low purchase price of only $439, $199 for the GX e3300N and $240 for the four SubliJet-R cartridges, this new system provides digital decorators the ability to produce a wide variety of personalized photo gifts and awards at a very low cost per page."
For peak performance, the GX e3300N's 4-colour printing utilises next generation Sawgrass sublimation gel ink cartridges (CMYK) - providing an initial ink cost savings over 6-colour and 8-colour cartridge printers with none of the hassles of a bulk ink delivery system. This dramatically fast desktop printer can print an 8.5"x11" page in 28 seconds (compared to 1:51 for an Epson 1400, 1:48 for an Epson 4800, and 1:45 for an Epson 4880). Condé's exclusive GX Series Printer Driver Installation Software, an easy-to-use software download that takes all of the guesswork out of configuring a Ricoh GX7000, GX5050N, or GX e3300N printer for sublimation output, is available from Condé's PartnerNET website. The software downloads, installs, and configures the selected Ricoh printer with Condé's exclusive driver settings and ICC profiles that provide superb photo and spot colour output from the SubliJet-R Gel Sublimation Inks. ICC Profiles support Windows and the Macintosh platform. Media options for the GX e3300N include TexPrint-R (a new special purpose paper made especially for the New RICOH GX series printers) and DyeTrans SPP Media including the new pre-cut sizes for 11 ounce and 15 ounce mugs.
