Domino launches high-speed mode for N730i at Labelexpo Southeast Asia

High-speed print mode offers up to 28 percent productivity increase and reduced ink usage while retaining high-quality output.

Domino Printing Sciences (Domino) has launched its new high-speed productivity mode for the N730i digital label press. The new feature has been developed in response to customer and market demand for faster and more efficient label printing machine to facilitate the uncompromised production of high-quality labels with a quicker return on investment. 

An N730i digital label press featuring the new high-speed productivity mode will be on show at Labelexpo Southeast Asia in Bangkok, Thailand from May 8-10 2025, with regular live demonstrations at Domino’s stand G36. 

‘Our customers asked for higher printing speeds that would enable them to maximise the number of labels produced on their Domino N730i digital label press,’ said Michael Matthews, global product manager – DP Colour, Domino. ‘The high-speed productivity mode significantly enhances the speed and efficiency of the N730i press, allowing our customers to achieve up to a 28% increase in productivity.’ 

With the new maximum print speed of up to 90m/min, compared with the standard 70m/min, Domino’s N730i provides converters with significant efficiency gains, including up to 28 percent increase in label output, up to 22 percent reduction in production time, and an annual ink saving of up to 8 percent. These improvements can translate to over GBP 5,000 in annual ink cost savings, according to Domino. 

Through balancing process resolution and line speed, the high-speed print mode retains high-quality output with no perceptible difference in print quality compared with the standard operating mode. 

‘By reducing the cost per label and allowing converters to increase the number of jobs completed per shift, we are providing a solution that not only meets – but exceeds – the growing demands of the label printing industry,’ continued Matthews. ‘We are thrilled to be able to demonstrate the new functionality at Labelexpo Southeast Asia and invite converters to join us at stand G36 for a live demonstration and to see the quality of the labels produced first-hand.’ 

Domino’s high-speed productivity mode will be available for new presses and as an upgrade for existing N730i customers. The upgrade is available for all businesses, current and new, looking to increase their output, achieve a competitive edge in the market, and maximize the return on their investment. 

Alongside the new high-speed print mode, the N730i digital label press on show at stand G36 will also feature the Domino R-Scan monitoring and inspection system. The R-Scan provides peace of mind during unattended operation of the press by ensuring that, when a defect is detected, the press automatically comes to a stop, enabling the operator to remedy the error, reducing the number of labels rejected, and helping to maximize efficiency and minimize waste. 

A K300 monochrome printer will also be available for demonstrations as part of a hybrid press at the Nilpeter stand, F32. The printer will feature alongside vision inspection from Domino Group Company Lake Image Systems. 

Mark Herrtage, Asia business development director, Domino, added: ‘Our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction drives us to continuously improve our products, so we can help our customers stay ahead in a competitive market. We are delighted to be able to demonstrate this commitment at Labelexpo Southeast Asia and look forward to meeting with converters across all stages of their digital printing journey to discuss how Domino’s expertise and solutions can help support them.’
