Konica Minolta launches AccurioLabel 231 as installed base tops 2,000

Konica Minolta has introduced the AccurioLabel 231, a new entry- to mid-production digital label press, as its AccurioLabel platform passes 2,000 installations globally since entering the digital label market nearly a decade ago. The press offers extended maintenance intervals, nearly double engine life versus the prior AccurioLabel 230, and new automated print-quality correction technology.

Why this mattersA larger installed base and updated digital press give converters more entry-level options to shift short-run label work away from analogue print.
