Mobile, AL - February 9, 2010 - Condé(tm) Systems has introduced the
DyeTrans(tm) GX e3300N, the latest addition to the incredibly successful
line of Ricoh ink jet printers for dye-sublimation.

Continuing to lower the price barrier for a dye-sublimation printer without
sacrificing quality, Condé’s new DyeTrans GX e3300N is an extremely fast and
reliable printer featuring Ricoh’s latest high performance print
technology, up to 8.5″x14″ media output, built-in 4-color ink delivery
system, a 250-sheet paper tray, and an optional 100-sheet multi-bypass tray.
“We’ve seen the dye-sublimation industry grow at an amazing pace in the
last few years,” said David Gross, President of Condé. “A great example of
this growth has been the introduction of Ricoh printers into the Epson
dominated desktop market. With a low purchase price of only $439, $199 for
the GX e3300N and $240 for the four SubliJet-R cartridges, this new system
provides digital decorators the ability to produce a wide variety of
personalized photo gifts and awards at a very low cost per page.”

For peak performance, the GX e3300N’s 4-color printing utilizes next
generation Sawgrass sublimation gel ink cartridges (CMYK) - providing an
initial ink cost savings over 6-color and 8-color cartridge printers with
none of the hassles of a bulk ink delivery system. This dramatically fast
desktop printer can print an 8.5″x11″ page in 28 seconds (compared to 1:51
for an Epson 1400, 1:48 for an Epson 4800, and 1:45 for an Epson 4880).
Condé’s exclusive GX Series Printer Driver Installation Software, an
easy-to-use software download that takes all of the guesswork out of
configuring a Ricoh GX7000, GX5050N, or GX e3300N printer for sublimation
output, is available from Condé’s PartnerNET website. The software
downloads, installs, and configures the selected Ricoh printer with Condé’s
exclusive driver settings and ICC profiles that provide superb photo and
spot color output from the SubliJet-R(tm) Gel Sublimation Inks. ICC Profiles
support Windows and the Macintosh platform. Media options for the GX e3300N
include TexPrint-R (a new special purpose paper made especially for the New
RICOH GX series printers) and DyeTrans SPP Media including the new pre-cut
sizes for 11 ounce and 15 ounce mugs. Visit www.conde.com for additional
