Demonstrations of Presstek DI presses, chemistry-free CTP systems, and workflow solutions are featured throughout the day. In addition, a short presentation is scheduled several times a day on how to take advantage of the current market trends.

“We realize how busy printers are and that is why we bring our equipment demonstrations to their local area,” says Brian Wolfenden, Presstek’s director of marketing communications. “The open houses allow for attendees to come in to “kick the tires”, ask questions and to explore the many business growth opportunities that Presstek can bring to their shop.”

Who Should Attend the Open House?
The attendees that will benefit the most from a Presstek open house are operations that are looking to grow their businesses in the following ways:

moving into four-color printing migrating from polyester CTP to chemistry-free metal CTP digital printers needing to produce run lengths of greater than 500; and on a wide variety of printing stocks finding a more productive and profitable way to quickly print high quality short-run color

The open houses are designed for attendees to drop in anytime during the day. DI seminars are scheduled throughout the day to ensure that visitors are able to plan their time between presentations and live product demonstrations.
