The Everest II utilizes
Rimage's patented retransfer
printing process. The CMY
panels are first printed to
a clear retransfer ribbon
inside the printer. Then,
using heat and pressure, the
printed image and a layer of
the clear ribbon are applied
to the disc. The finished
product emerges dry,
durable, and ready to
handle. The final effect is
amazing - a colorful, high
resolution, disc with your
choices of photos, graphics,
text, bar codes, you name it
- in less than 60 seconds

Full color printing for
photo-realistic images,
monocolor printing for
special effects or economy,
white media, silver media -
all are possible with
Everest. The Everest II can
print up to 1000 discs
unattended, making it
perfect for long printing
runs. The Everest II
printing ribbons are on an
easy-to-change carriage so
even when a ribbon change is
required, it's easy and can
be done in less than a
minute.
Features: |
The pigmented ink on the
Everest II ribbons is UV
protected, ensuring vibrant
colors throughout the life
of a disc. Everest II disc
printing will pass any
sunshine or dashboard test
you devise - a significant
advantage over other disc
printers. And because the
ink is not water based, you
will never see a smeared
Everest II disc. Everest II
printing also won't scratch
off—you'll ruin the disc
before you can scratch the
label. This enables discs to
be used for commercial
distribution because Everest
II printed discs can
withstand the rigors of
day-to-day consumer
handling.
The Everest II employs an
innovative variable dot
technology, where the dots
composing an image vary in
size, resulting in sharper
images with greater detail.
In addition, the MicroDry
ink is actually a thermal
resin that contains pigment.
This dry technology produces
a dot with a fine edge.
Consequently, dots per inch,
or DPI, does not accurately
reflect the print
resolution. A better measure
is lines per inch (LPI), and
that is where Everest II
truly shines. Silk-screen
printing typically produces
85-120 LPI, and magazines
are generally offset printed
at 150 LPI. Everest II
prints labels at 160 LPI—color
or monochrome printing that
is better than silk-screen!
CMY print ribbons - these
are the most popular choice
for Everest printing. They
work well with silver or
white media and can
reproduce everything from
photos to graphics to
sophisticated artwork. CMY
ribbons will print 500 discs
per ribbon and each disc
will print in less than 60
seconds.
Black ribbon - the black
ribbon is a great choice for
black or gray scale
printing. Silver media and a
black ribbon can combine to
form a great looking disc,
and provide the additional
benefits of faster printing,
35 seconds, lower cost per
disc, and 1000 prints per
ribbon.
CMY+W ribbon - This is a CMY
ribbon with an additional
white panel. This ribbon can
be used when maximum
photographic reproduction is
desired, particularly with
skin tones and faces. In
addition, the CMY+W ribbon
can be used with silver
media to print the full
color spectrum and also
provide silver highlights or
dropouts. And, if you really
want to wow your audience,
use the unique layering
capability of Everest
printing to create discs
with reflective highlights
that can easily be seen, but
can't be copied or
duplicated. This holographic
effect is an Everest
exclusive. The CMY+W ribbon
prints 375 discs per ribbon
and each disc prints in 75
seconds
