"It's very high-quality printing," says Meredith's Bob Furstenau of his IBM InfoColor 70. "It's very comparable to offset."

Furstenau, director of digital content management for the Des Moines, Iowa-based publisher, points out that the webfed InfoColor 70 provides duplex printing with excellent registration in sizes ranging from 4˝ to 109˝. He adds that digital systems offer a wider color range than offset. Why? Because the printed pages are one generation closer to the job files.
