Elsewhere, A.B.Dick displayed its new Print Pro 34—a two-color twin tower portrait press with large press features like a stream feeder and a convertible dampener system. It can run with polyester plates, and features running register, auto crawl and auto setup to ensure faster makeready.

The 12-color Akiyama JP-6P640 is the latest in a series of presses designed for printing the top and bottom of the sheet in one pass. The compact J Print series comes in 26˝, 32˝, 40˝ and 44˝ format sizes from one-over-one to six-over-six printing units. Each upper and lower unit has its own plate, blanket, impression and transfer cylinder.
