But why a six-color and not a four-color? And why Akiyama, which is not exactly a common choice among in-plants? Serendipity certainly played a role, Lundgren acknowledges.
Back when he was still contemplating a four-color press, Lundgren says a former employee paid a visit.
“He said, ‘you’ve got to get a five-color, at least,’ ” Lundgren recalls. The reason? The school’s PMS 287 blue was not buildable from four colors.
