searching for a replacement for the past few years.
“During our visit to FESPA in Amsterdam in March 2024, we saw the launch of the Agfa Bronco, and it won us over. “We had waited for its release, and two months in, we are really pleased we did.” The Agfa Jet Bronco H3300 is the latest addition to the company’s wide format print machine range.

iscount Displays continues its 17-year relationship with Zünd as it installs the G3 L-3200 digital cutter. The Croydon-based company decided to upgrade its hardware to utilise the most out of its space at its HQ.
After extensive market research, the decision to stick with Zünd was due to multiple reasons.
Zünd’s cutters showed greater reliability and superiority than others on the market – shown by the company’s original cutter still functioning as expected two decades on.
Zünd collected the old model while installing the new one so little disruption was caused to Discount Displays’ production schedule.
The G3 is an advanced cutting system with integrated camera technology, equipped with features that will transform the company’s workflow and significantly broaden its capabilities. This innovation saves time, reduces the potential for errors, and ensures greater efficiency throughout the production process.
This hybrid inkjet printer, designed from the ground up using innovative technology, can print up to 330cm wide with CMYKcm and white ink capabilities. It currently functions with two sets of print heads but can be upgraded to four sets to increase speed as required. As this Bronco machine is the first to be installed, Agfa is treating it as a ‘field trial’ for the next three months with the company making weekly calls to gather feedback.

The machine’s modular tooling system is another feature, offering the flexibility to add specialised tools in the future. The installation took place on January 13.

The ColorJet Verve 2513R enables high-quality direct printing onto almost any kind of rigid surface including wood, glass, leather and ceramic tiles.
Offering a top printing speed of up to 91sq m/hr, the device also has a maximum print resolution of 1200dpi. Mr Henderson said: “The old machine we had was very slow, so when we saw the new printer being demonstrated on the QPS stand, we were very impressed.
“It is so much faster and allows us to get so much more work done. “It enables us to cover all existing customers and gives us time to take on new clients.”
