Baltimore Mavens...of Print
To bring about nearly hands-off printing, the in-plant has installed a Lasermax Roll Systems unwinder/sheeter on the front end of its Nuvera 288 and an inline GBC Fusion Punch II at the back end. This has eliminated the bindery bottleneck that used to slow down jobs like the curriculum guides the shop prints for the city's 200 schools. It used to take two months to produce 10,000 coil-bound city directories, Cooper says; now it takes just two weeks, thanks to the inline punch.
