Compact and feature-rich

to improve efficiency
Rethink inkjet.
Experience the difference with this ultra-fast
compact printer that really delivers.
The power of inkjet.
Ultimate speed and efficiency.
Inkjet printers require no heat when printing unlike laser printers. ComColor FW5000 boasts
ultra-fast print speed combined with a fast first print time to streamline printing, helping
make busy work environments more efficient. Its ultimately low power consumption prevents
paper from curling to reduce paper jams. And because output requires no cooling, pages
can be sent immediately after printing to any of your optional finishers, vastly reducing
production times.

Advancements all around

High productivity for any workplace.
With print speeds at 90 ppm, duplex scanning and a rich
feature set, ComColor FW5000 brings a new level of
productivity to any workplace. You’ll also appreciate its
modest footprint — the ideal choice where space is at a
premium. Affordable on-demand, full-color printing ensures
smooth operation to increase efficiency.

Superb efficiency for high volume printing.

ComColor FW5000 is the right choice for low-cost
color printing. Superb high-speed output combines with
outstanding flexibility for cost-efficient in-house printing.
It also goes easy on the environment thanks to the
energy-saving design.

Excellent usability for every work environment.

The easy to use and intuitive user interface of ComColor
FW5000 makes anyone a master of efficiency. Management
and maintenance tasks are also simplified, ensuring speedy
workflows and reduced downtime.
 High productivity for any workplace.

High-speed printing at 90 ppm

The amazingly fast print speed of 90 ppm in full-color allows
ComColor FW5000 to significantly quicken high-volume print jobs.

Print Time for 1,000 A4-size Color Sheets (A4/letter-size, long-edge feed simplex)

Approx. 11 minutes
Typical office laser printer 25 minutes *

* At 40 ppm
Duplex printing shares this efficiency, reaching up to 90 ppm. Thanks to high-precision paper-feed control, ComColor FW5000
prints at the same speed for both simplex and duplex documents to boost productivity. The responsive first print time of only
5 seconds means less waiting for both short print runs and high-volume jobs.
The optional one-pass duplex scanner drastically enhances processing speed for scanning. You can load up to 200 sheets for
quick scanning and copying of large documents.

developed, oil-based ink is also fade-resistant and water-resistant, and minimizes paper curling.
Stable paper feeding ensures the reliable performance necessary for high-speed printing.
Paper-feed speed is intelligently controlled according to how much ink is emitted from the print
head. Also, multiple sensors help ensure high levels of reliability.

On-demand, full-color printing

White paper solution decreases waste, as it allows printing on-demand as and when
required. ComColor FW5000 also supports variable-data printing, eliminating the need
for pre-printed stock. Less outsourcing shortens turnaround time and lets you make
last minute changes to documents.

Intelligent design for flexibility and efficiency

A simple paper-feed mechanism with no heating function supports a wide range of
media, from plain paper and envelopes to cards. Paper is less likely to curl as no
heat is applied during printing, thereby minimizing paper jams. Operation time can be
reduced for long print runs by inserting slip sheets to facilitate sorting, add covers and
program printing.

The energy-efficient printing process offers smooth, economical operation. Unlike

toner-based printers, ComColor FW5000 employs an imaging process that eliminates
ozone and toner emissions.
