DC Area Printer Elects a Winner
UPPER MARLBORO, MD—In close proximity to the nation’s capital, family owned District Creative Printing provides services to groups that cater to the federal government, one of which is trade associations. Already operating a fleet of five MAN Roland presses, District Creative Printing recently installed a new five-color Roland 700 HiPrint press with in-line coater, making it the first shop in the Mid-Atlantic with the recently launched midsize model.
New Press Keeps Shop In Vogue
WAUKEGAN, IL—The difference is “like night and day,” says Pete DePerte, vice president and co-owner of Vogue Printers, comparing the difference between his old and new press. The older model press was replaced with a new five-color Heidelberg Speedmaster CD 102 with aqueous coater, which DePerte says runs more quickly and with a lot less waste, due to the intelligent presetting of the press via Prinect Prepress Interface. With print quality that has “vastly improved,” he reports that press OKs are now “a walk in the park.”
