High Durability
Simitri HD polymerised toner offers high
image quality
Simitri HD toner offers resistance to fading comparable
to offset ink and excellent resistance to peeling compared
to other conventional toners. Documents can be stored
for long periods of time and still retain the same high
image quality as the day they were printed.
Unique Engineered Simitri HD Polymerised Toner
The particles in Simitri HD toner are extremely small and
consistent in shape, ensuring improved colour photo and
illustration quality and clear reproduction of text and line
drawings. The smooth outer surface and evenly dispersed
wax and colour pigment offer a great hold and a consistent
finish for high image quality across diverse media.
Detailed Reproduction of Fine Lines
Halftones and fine characters are reproduced with greater
precision than conventional pulverised toner. This gives
documents a professional-looking clarity and refinement.
Low Temperature Fixing Reduces Paper Stress
The bizhub PRO C5501 Professional affixes Simitri HD
toner using less heat energy than previous models.
By reducing excess heat, this fixing process minimises
paper stress allowing for an extensive range of media
to be used.
Oil-less Fusing System
A special compound fusing process delivers high-quality,
low-gloss output that allows you to celloglase and use
post finishing equipment easily.

During printing, text data is isolated from image data
and processed to best enhance reproduction. Detailed
outlines are precisely defined, while reversed text and fine
text are optimised to clearly stand out.
Detailed reproduction of small characters
A newly developed technology controls the screen by
adjusting exposure time of the engine’s lasers. Text at
small point sizes are not only legible, but very clear.
Stable image quality and colour alignment
The transfer belt features an optical sensor to monitor
the density of toner and provide instructions such as
adjusting laser strength and screen gradation to maintain
consistency and precise coverage, even during long runs.

Robust ADU design
The ADU is built on a sturdy steel chassis for precise,

Fine-tuning image placement and registration
From the touch panel, users can make slight
adjustments to image position (in 0.1 mm increments),
and magnification (in 0.01% increments) for length
and width. An exclusive chart can also be printed and
