This high-end UV-LED printer further expands the RIP’s portfolio of supported peripherals for large-format printing.

Kudu— a premium printer with extra capacity
After its introduction at FESPA 2022 in Berlin, the Kudu became the most universal flatbed printer of swissQprint large format range.
Creative, versatile and productive, the Kudu ticks all the boxes of a high-end model. In addition to CMYK, users can supplement the process colors with up to 6 additional channels: light colors, white, varnish, orange, neon or primer for maximum application diversity.
