CakePro printers vary in print size, ink system, and production capacity. The table below highlights key differences and shows approximately how many round edible items (cookies, macarons, marshmallows, etc.) can fit per tray for each model.
| Model | Max Print Area | Max Print Height | Ink System | Est. 1" Rounds | Est. 2" Rounds | Est. 3" Rounds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quatro V2 | ~8" x 12" | 10" | 2 Cartridge (CMYK) | ~54 | ~15–20 | ~6 |
| 770A | ~8.27" x 11.69" | 3" | 6-Color (CMYK + LC + LM) | ~54 | ~15–20 | ~6 |
| 800V3 | ~13" x 18.9" | 3" | 6-Color (CMYK + LC + LM) | ~140 | ~40 | ~15 |
| 850V2 | ~11.5" x 16" | ~5.9" | Continuous Ink System | ~108 | ~35 | ~12 |
| 2000XL | ~23.62" x 35.43" | ~5.9" | Continuous Ink System | ~500+ | ~150+ | ~70+ |
6-Color Cartridge System (CMYK + Light Cyan + Light Magenta)
• Produces smoother gradients and more vibrant, photo-quality prints
• Ideal for detailed designs, logos, and high-end presentation
• Best suited for custom orders and shorter production runs
Continuous Ink System (CIS)
• Designed for high-volume production and efficiency
• Lower cost per print with bulk ink tanks
• Fewer interruptions with less frequent refilling
• Ideal for bakeries and production environments printing in large batches
Simple Comparison:
• 6-Color = Quality-focused (photo-level detail)
• CIS = Volume-focused (production efficiency)
How to choose:
• Smaller models (Quatro V2, 770A) are ideal for lower volume or entry-level production.
• Mid-size models (800V3, 850V2) offer a balance of quality, size, and throughput.
• The 2000XL is designed for high-volume commercial production with significantly larger tray capacity.
Disclaimer: Tray capacity estimates are based on practical layouts with spacing between items for proper alignment and print accuracy. Actual capacity may vary depending on product shape, spacing preferences, print margins, and workflow. For best results, slight spacing between items and tray edges is recommended.
