M&G GRAPHICS FINDS ANSWER TO SHORT RUN COLOR PRINTING NEEDS WITH KPG DIRECTPRESS 5634 DI SYSTEM


Norwalk, Connecticut, USA - After comparing several direct imaging presses, M&G Graphics recently installed the Kodak Polychrome Graphics (KPG) DirectPress 5634 DI System to provide its customers with high quality short run color printing services.

"We chose the KPG DirectPress 5634 DI System because its quality surpassed all of the competition," said Josephine Meyer, Owner, M&G Graphics. "The automation of the KPG DirectPress allows us to achieve excellent color quickly, which cuts down on our waste and enables us to print more jobs in a day, reducing turnaround time."

M&G Graphics decided to install a DI press because it could not meet customer demand for short run color jobs on its two conventional six color presses. Since installing the KPG press, M&G Graphics has strengthened relationships with existing customers and performed several demanding four color short run jobs for other printing companies and print brokers with ease. Now, M&G Graphics receives inquiries from Internet based printing companies looking for dependable high quality printing.

The KPG DirectPress 5634 DI System combines industry leading image quality with the simplicity and automation of a DI press. The DirectPress 5634 DI System supports 16-micron spot diameters for FM stochastic screening and also prints in high line AM and hybrid screening.

M&G Graphics (www.m-g-graphics.com), a certified WBE (Women's Business Enterprise), is located in Chicago. In addition to its short run color, long run sheet fed, wide format and variable data services, its prepress department offers color correcting, digital match print proofing, and digital dyluxes.
