Beluga-C1/C1.5 Training

Slide 2

Introduction

This is a digital black-and-white wide-format
machine with 600 dpi resolution for scanning and
printing.

The controller is a GW controller. A Ratio
controller is also available for the D046/D049
only.

This is a combined training course for the
D046/D049 (BE-C1.0) and D154/D155 (BE-C1.5)
machines.

(The D154/D155 machines are minor upgrades to the
D154/D155.)
