Digital and Offset: Hand in Hand

One of the more exciting acquisitions for Print Solutions in 2011 was a new four-color Presstek 75DI digital offset press with an aqueous coater. It joined the Print Solutions family in May.

"Prior to that, our offset portfolio consisted of a 2/1 Ryobi and a low-impression four-color Heidelberg QMDI we bought used in 2010," explains Pettway. "The 75DI is a game-changer for us because of its sheet size, capabilities and sheer speed. We feel confident this press will play a key role in helping us bring in work currently being outsourced. In fact, our customers were so excited about this new press that while the press was being assembled on the floor and before the first production job even came off of the press, we had more than a million impressions lined up for it."
