Optimized for OcÉ ColorStream
It makes sense that a high-quality, recycled paper that can print vivid colors, display an excellent density of black, and offer a strong color reproduction should team up with a press that is equally compatible. The OcÉ ColorStream® goes beyond delivering the speed and throughput that busy print operations require. It is designed for high-speed, high-volume production printing environments that align with Enviro Jet’s capabilities, including direct mail, transactional documents and books.
“In the past, consumers had to compromise quality for being green,” said Normand Champagne, general sales and marketing director, Cascades Fine Papers Group. “With the relationship combination of Cascades’ Enviro Jet and Canon Solutions America’s OcÉ ColorStream 3000 series, consumers can be colorful, productive AND green.”
