Joseph D. Skrzypczak, President and chief executive officer of Oce Imagistics, said, "We are delighted that BLI has awarded the Oce Imagistics im9220, cm4520 and cm2320 with the coveted "Pick of the Year" recognition. This marks the 23rd award that Oce Imagistics has received from BLI over the past 5 years, continuing to demonstrate that we bring superb quality, functionality and value in highly effective document management solutions to our customers. The aggressive launch of new products in 2006, including the im9220, cm4520 and cm2520 award winners, is a key element of our growth strategy. It is great to see an independent validation of the products we bring to market."

"From a strategic standpoint, the color and high-speed monochrome markets are critical segments for every competitor in the digital imaging marketplace today," said BLI CEO Michael Danziger. "Oce Imagistics is in the enviable position of having award-winning products in those segments, with which to lead its entire product lineup."

About the im9220

The im9220 is a high performance MFP equipped with versatile print/copy/scan plus advanced finishing and security features. The im9220 produces reliable high-speed, high-quality output at 92ppm and offers full in-house production capabilities to deliver results within a hard-driving "constant use" environment. "This unit's well-designed print drivers make it easy to produce complex print jobs and, combined with its range of finishing options, will make it a welcome addition to environments with high-volume needs," said BLI lab manager, Pete Emory. "It's an amazing feat that this unit misfed only once in its 750,000 impression test," added Emory.

About the cm4520 and 2520

The cm4520 is a high-speed, high-quality workhorse MFP that ships fully featured with standard network ready printing and scanning. With 35ppm in color and 45ppm in black & white, it's an ideal solution for everyday business document needs featuring cost-effective color for extra impact when needed. "Even with its standard print controller, the cm4520 offers excellent print quality," noted BLI lab manager, Pete Emory. "It stands out among business color models for its superior consistency of coverage, with none of the light, washed-out areas often seen in business color output." On the other hand, the cm2520 is a total workgroup productivity center that is both a viable monochrome MFP as well as a color device. It's an ideal "out of the box" solution for busy workgroups with powerful finishing capabilities that round out the efficiencies.
