The American College of Physicians’ in-plant recently installed a Formax Color Max 8 inkjet envelope printer in its Philadelphia facility to replace a printer that was not keeping up with volumes. The new device is used to print envelopes for direct marketing campaigns, membership communications, continuous medical education course promotions, and other materials.
During IPI's recent visit, the shop was preparing for an upcoming job of 20,000 booklet envelopes. The Color Max 8 has reduced labor hours and increased quality, Manager Eric Pro says, and he praises its ability to print on thicker materials like bubble envelopes, booklets, and cardboard boxes. It can also imprint on preprinted embossed flat sheet certificates without damage to the embossed area of the sheet, he says.
