Konica Minolta redefines digital print excellence with AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S featuring new high-opacity five-colour CMYK + white toner

Innovative new features including AQA build on the company’s unparalleled history of intelligent print solutions to help print operators work smarter and reduce manual adjustments for unattended, uninterrupted printing.

Auckland, New Zealand, 9 April 2025 –  Konica Minolta has announced its next-generation AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S production presses. These innovative presses empower businesses with stunning print quality, exceptional speeds, and unmatched versatility, letting customers unlock more possibilities in digital print with CMYK + White toners.

The AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S from Konica Minolta deliver exceptional performance, achieving print speeds of up to 140 pages per minute (ppm) and 120 ppm, respectively. The new five-colour print models adds white as a new colour and let businesses explore new creative avenues, such as eye-catching print effects. The AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S feature six cutting-edge Intelligent Media Sensors, a game changer in automated print management, that identify paper type, weight, and size instantly for optimal print settings every time without additional operator input.

The presses support a broad range of media, from 52 gsm and up to 450 gsm paper including envelopes, embossed paper, polyester, and cut-sheet labels, opening doors to diverse applications. The new CMYK + white toner is high-opacity and achieves exceptional coverage in a single pass, making it ideal for premium applications, further expanding offerings for the new models and helping businesses tap into new revenue streams.

Unrivalled flexibility and smart technology to meet customer demands

For larger and more demanding projects, the systems accommodate long sheets up to 1,300 mm simplex and 900 mm in duplex, providing unrivalled flexibility to meet customer demands. Whether it’s for banners, book covers, or specialty items, the AccurioPress C14010s and C12010S let customers rethink possibilities in production printing and explore additional opportunities for business growth.

Graphic arts customers such as print service providers, offset printers, digital printers, and direct mail will benefit from the AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S models. Other potential market segments include enterprise document printing, such as central print rooms and in-plant print operations.

Chris O’Hara, National Production Print Manager, Konica Minolta New Zealand, said, “Konica Minolta’s AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S are engineered for efficiency, streamlining operations with advanced smart innovative technology. These new print solutions help operators to work smarter, reduce manual adjustments for unattended, uninterrupted printing, and deliver flawless print results faster with reduced touchpoints and exciting new colour options with the addition of white in the new high-opacity CMYK + white toner.”

Features such as the Intelligent Quality Optimiser Unit, IQ-601, including a new inline spectrophotometer for precise colour profile creation, and Intelligent Media Sensors (IM-104 and IM-105) support consistent, high-quality output with minimum user intervention. The IM-105 measures the paper size of the substrates and detects even the slightest variations in paper cutting size and, together with the Intelligent Quality Optimiser IQ-601, automatically adjusts
image positioning to eliminate front/back alignment errors for professional quality and consistency with every print run.

High-volume production with press uptime maximised

Other key other benefits include automatic print quality adjustments with Automated Quality Adjustments (AQA) and Automatic Inspection Technology (AIT), with an intelligent overall design to maximise press uptime.

Its human-centric partnership approach lets customers streamline their businesses through fewer human touchpoints and higher productivity with tangible benefits including high-quality output with less print waste.

The new five-colour AccurioPress C14010S and C12010S print systems are built on 20 years of expertise, innovation, and leadership in digital printing, all backed by the trusted support Konica Minolta is renowned for.
