We are Extremely Excited to Announce Our New Press!

By Michele Stilwell, Director of Marketing and Accounting at MEDiAHEAD.

A need for speed, we have it!
A need for higher quality, we have it!
Larger output, we have it.

This is all coming with our new press delivering on December 16^th, and we couldn’t be more excited!

The cost of production is always important, but so are print quality and turnaround times. You get both of these at MEDiAHEAD. We strive to give our clients the best quality and the fastest turnaround at a competitive cost.

Why are we so happy about our new press?

Wide Range of Substrate Types

• 20 lb. up to 130 lb. coated
• Up to 24 pt substrates

Longer sheet size is better

It is easy to assume that printing on a larger sheet reduces production costs.  This is typically the case with offset, where make ready time and associated costs need to be amortized across total production time.

A longer narrow sheet size enables:

New, larger-format applications to be migrated to short-run digital printing, where they can be produced to size in a highly efficient workflow. This includes various types of collateral, pocket folders, retail signage, dust jackets and point-of-sale materials. Just think of the options….

More efficient production of smaller jobs that are printed closer to finished size, requiring less handling and fewer cuts to finish, and generating less waste.

We offer the longer sheet with our new press.

• Sheet sizes 14 x 20.7 (imageable area 13.4. x 20)
• Sheet size 14 x 48 (imageable area 13.4 x 47.61)

So what are you waiting for… come by and see us, check out our new press and see what we can do.
