ON THE ROAD -- German Tour Opens Printers' Eyes Wide

In the sheetfed printing segment, two production alternatives that have been getting greater attention of late are long perfectors and large-format presses. Koenig & Bauer AG recently held an open house at its sheetfed headquarters to give some 300 participants an opportunity to compare examples of each platform. A select group of U.S. commercial printers and trade press editors made a trek to the event at the invitation of KBA North America.
