ColorJet Neptune Plus Solvent Printer (KM512, 4/8 Heads) – Overview
The ColorJet Neptune Plus is the Indian signage industry’s flagship workhorse: a 3.2-metre roll-to-roll solvent printer pairs a famously robust body with improvised advanced features – inbuilt LED monitor, extended bed with conductive heating and a precision media-pulling feed system. Made in India by the country’s largest wide-format manufacturer, it delivers outstanding performance at entry-level cost and is engineered to be the most stable, reliable machine in its segment.
The CJ-NEPTUNEPLUS runs daily production on flex banners, vinyl hoardings, backlit film & displays, one-way vision film, window film, SAV/PVC banner, wall & building wraps, fabric (solvent base), vehicle wraps and outdoor advertising cloth. Solvent prints are waterproof and UV-stable for long outdoor life, and the machine’s service ecosystem is supported across India.
