BOULDER, CO—April 18, 2011—InfoPrint Solutions, a Ricoh company, announced that Frederic Printing, a Consolidated Graphics company in Aurora, CO, has completed its second installation of the InfoPrint 5000 color inkjet press to enable the printing of high-quality print-on-demand (POD) textbooks, direct mail pieces and election ballots.
“Since our initial installation of the InfoPrint 5000, it has proven to be a reliable, efficient and flexible component of our print production environment, and we're excited to expand our inkjet offerings with this next platform,” said Chris Greene, president of Frederic Printing. “This decision is a testament to the success we've had with the InfoPrint 5000 and its versatility, which has provided us with the flexibility needed for short runs, the reliability of increased operational efficiency and, most importantly, the ability to meet and exceed the needs of our broad range of customers.”
The first deployment of the InfoPrint 5000 provided Frederic with a POD solution that minimized overall cost of ownership for customers by reducing the cost of warehouse storage and obsolescence. The versatile and flexible functionality of the InfoPrint 5000 was also an important requirement for Frederic, which services a variety of customers across many industries, including education, government and marketing organizations. Because the needs of these customers vary significantly, the ability to quickly adjust the printing environment and produce short runs is crucial to Frederic’s success.
“The InfoPrint 5000 continues to serve as a seamless complement to our integrated digital footprint, which is the world’s largest. Upon installation, we quickly experienced for ourselves why this printing system is so successful, which is why we decided to continue on this path with another deployment,” said Ric Davis, executive vice president of operations at Consolidated Graphics. “Proven as a solid, long-term investment, the InfoPrint 5000 has enabled us to provide an exceptional level of quality that meets and exceeds the expectations of our customers, regardless of their industry or print needs.”
The InfoPrint 5000’s unique piezo-electric drop-on-demand inkjet technology with multi-bit per spot for every object on the page, coupled with its high-quality water-based pigment and dye inks designed to resist fading and smearing, optimize the appearance of the output while minimizing the volume of ink consumed. These Advanced Function Presentation (AFP)-enabled systems support PostScript and PDF, provide accurate, consistent, and device-independent color-rendering, and provide error recovery, auditability and security benefits.
