Luxury embellishments
The Tauro H3300 HS, UHS and XUHS let you add a layer of varnish to your displays to make them shine. The varnish can be applied to the entire surface (flood) or to selected areas (spot).
Brown packaging boxes
Transition sampling and low- to mid-range packaging print runs to your Tauro. It’s perfect for printing brown boxes typically used for secondary or tertiary packaging in e-commerce in one pass.
Take your productivity to the MAX
The Tauro family delivers high-speed performance, and its multiple automation options ensure this beast is not limited by human capabilities. Automation is essential for maximizing productivity, ensuring consistency and achieving peak efficiency, ultimately providing the best total cost of ownership, and helping you manage the challenges of rising expenses.
Whether you operate a dedicated rigid and sheet production facility, handle only roll media, or seek to combine both types of substrates, the MAX range of automation solutions provides the perfect solution to optimize your operations.
Automation for boards and sheets: MAX BOTS
Maximize your throughput and versatility with robotic media handling! Whereas a single robot can be used either for feeding in for stacking media, a dual-robot setup will completely automate your printing operations. The robots can handle up to 150 load cycles per hour. They can be used with a wide scope of substrates including sheets, corrugated and rigid boards up to 2.1 m x 3.3 m.
Ideal for
Print service providers who handle a variety of materials and are looking to maximize productivity and seamlessly switch between rigid substrates and roll media.
MAX Feeder & Stacker
Dedicated feeder & stacker solution for rigid & sheet. Media up to 2.65 x 3.30 m. While one board (set) is being printed, the next one is being prepared.
Ideal for
Fully automated printing of larger runs with single or multiple stacks. Automatically printing multiple boards will increase your productivity.
Models
MAX Pro: a cost-efficient step-in design, achieving productivity up to 80 load cycles per hour
➔ Ideal in combination with the Jeti Tauro S & HS models
MAX Elite: the full option version featuring a second gantry, boosting productivity to 120 load cycles per hour
➔ Supports faster press configurations like the Jeti Tauro XUHS

- Embedded continuous print solution enhances productivity in rigid mode as it narrows down the gap between two consecutive boards
Can be converted into a semi-automation, a ¾ automation, and combined with a light or a master roll-to-roll configuration
Semi-automation
- Manual loading table, automated unloader
- Optional 3-point alignment bar on the input tables allows for easy and accurate media alignment. This supports more precise double-sided printing of thin media or skewed media, as well as correct cutting.
¾ automation with automatic board feeder (ABF)
- Manual loading with automatic alignment and transport to the printer
- Ideal for shorter runs or fast and efficient changeover between different media sizes or types. The ABF takes over part of the operator’s tasks, including accurate alignment.
Full automation

Industry-leading print quality
Whatever you are creating, the Tauro printers, powered by Agfa’s signature UV LED-curable inks, deliver a wide color gamut and high color vibrancy. Asanti’s color management module allows for accurate mapping of spot colors and neutral gray printing, while the robustness of the printers and their precise media transport, combined with specific jetting algorithms and masking technology, results in excellent solid color reproduction on a wide variety of media. The 6-color models include light black (CMYKLcLk), guaranteeing a perfectly neutral gray balance.
Your customers will enjoy a print quality resembling offset printing, with fine details and smoothness throughout. The 7-pl droplets produce stunning images at 635 x 1200 dpi with a fine rendering of shadow and highlight details and razor-sharp texts in as small as 4-point type both in positive and negative text. The printers also excel in smooth ramp-ups over the tonal range, with outstanding skin tone rendering.
A whole new level of brilliance
HDR screenings, available as an option in our Asanti workflow, extend the color gamut and provide better Pantone reproduction without sacrificing speed. This will enable you to achieve your customers’ brand colors better without having to slow down your press.
Agfa-made inks: the perfect match
Specially formulated to print on rigid or flexible media, Agfa’s GREENGUARD Gold certified Anuvia UV LED inks broaden the scope of possible applications. This is what you can expect:
- Vibrant colors, impressive results
- The lowest ink consumption out there
- Excellent adhesion and durability
- Advanced white printing and ink management
- Primer option
- Compliant to industry norms
Software solutions
Asanti ——Dedicated Sign & Display workflow software
The Tauro H3300 engines are driven by Agfa’s award-winning wide-format workflow software Asanti, which controls the entire printing process from prepress to production and finishing. As such, it simplifies, optimizes and automates as many steps as possible, offering you a high-performance solution for increased productivity.
Simplify & automate
Including the latest Adobe PDF Print Engine, Asanti takes care of preflighting and job conversion to guarantee smooth, error-free job handling and consistent print quality. In addition, Asanti streamlines your print operations through automatic job layout and positioning, and automatic true-shape-nesting. The automatic collection of images allows you to gather all artwork for a specific press and specific media, and to optimally nest it on the print sheet or roll, taking copy count and bleed into account.
Asanti guarantees consistent color reproduction through the creation and use of color profiles. To do so, it deploys the patented Calibrated Print Mode (CPM) feature, which uses easy-to-set-up production templates that contain all parameters for a particular substrate and enable automatic job creation. It will only take you 15 minutes to calibrate and profile media, and then you can enjoy hassle-free printing with optimal and consistent quality!
The Asanti Production Dashboard is a browser-based reporting tool that allows you to inspect the status, ink and media consumption, and printing time of jobs.
Asanti can also drive non-Agfa printers and a wide range of cutting tables, and it offers JDF/JMF-based integration with many MIS solutions. To link a non-Agfa RIP/workflow with the Tauro printers, we developed TauroConnect, which captures data from the workflow in place and takes care of screening, output quality, and printing parameters.
