Schaumburg, IL (Oct. 30, 2024) — Pulse Technology, a technology company serving the IT, managed print services and other needs of businesses throughout the Midwest and beyond, recently hosted several national leaders from the New Jersey-based Sharp Electronics USA Corporation.
Jun (Jeff) Ashida, president, chairman and CEO at Sharp Electronics Corp. USA and Tony Yoshimura, associate vice president/business planning from Sharp, met with Pulse Technology CEO Chip Miceli and members of his team for a tour of the facility, and to see the setup of the new Sharp BP-1200S production print machine and to see how they can additionally support Pulse’s expansion into production print.
Pulse Technology recently retrofitted its showroom to bring in this new, state-of-the-art Sharp BP-1200S printer, which provides the latest advances in production print and is serving as the cornerstone of Pulse Technology’s new production center.
The machine is ideally suited for companies who do in-house marketing and printing, and also a very viable option for companies who traditionally outsource their printing but are looking for a way to keep those services in-house. It’s an ideal choice for print shops, large companies with significant printing needs, and institutions like mega-churches and schools.
Pulse Technology is one of only a handful of dealers in the United States to carry this particular machine. “Print production is an area that we believe has great growth potential,” said Vince Miceli, Vice-President of Technology, adding, “It was great to host our friends from Sharp at our Schaumburg facility and discuss our plans with them. We see a bright future in production print.”
Pulse Technology invites businesses and organizations to see for themselves firsthand the capabilities of the Sharp BP-1200S. Its features include:
- High-speed printing up to 120 pages per minute even when printing in 6 colors
- Ultra-high output resolution at 2,400 x 2,400 dpi
- Capability of supporting a broad range of print media
- Industry-leading 6‑color printing technology
- Print professional full-bleed booklets and banners with versatile finishing options
- Maximum paper capacity up to 13,250 sheets.
- Time-saving purge function automatically ejects misfeeds for jam removal that is virtually hands-free.
