University of St. Thomas adds Xante Ilumina Digital Envelope Press, leaves offset behind.

By Bob Neubauer

“We’ve completed developing a set of the appropriate settings to feed all of our traditional envelopes with the new machine,” he explains, “and we’re making good progress on the best ways to handle unusual paper stocks and envelope sizes with it.”

The in-plant also recently decommissioned and sold another offset press, a Heidelberg QM-46-2, which had been used to print letterhead. The shop is now printing letterhead with a pair of HP CM8050 color multi-function printers with Edgeline technology. It installed one in its Minneapolis service center and one in the St. Paul service center. Customers place their letterhead orders via the in-plant’s SCOOP online ordering system and the letterhead is printed at the most convenient location.
