DI Presses in the In-plant
Like Rutledge, she also points to the need for offset-printed letterhead as a key reason for getting the DI, in addition to its ability to more cost effectively print jobs of more than 1,500 impressions. Larger-format jobs, such as the tabloid-size newsletters the shop produces, go on its two-color, 40˝ press. The in-plant bought a Presstek Dimension 800 platesetter to make plates for it about the same time it added the DI and the NexPress. Thacker says her shop’s product mix make all three technologies viable.
