RZ series

RZ
Series information
Type	Single drum
Status	Discontinued
Launched	2004
Discontinued	2014

The RZ series is a collection of discontinued digital duplicators from (originally released in 2004 and discontinued in 2014). Different models print in a wide range of paper sizes (A4, B4, A3, letter, legal, and ledger) and a range of resolutions (300, 600e, and 600).

All subsequent one-drum machines have been based on the design of the RZ series, with small modifications of the component modules and electronics. After advancements in the EZ series (which was released some 3 years later, in 2007), the RZ10 models were created, combining the designs of both.
