The sheetfed department is decidedly Heidelberg, with a pair of eight-color, 40? Speedmasters; one four-color, 40? Speedmaster; one four-color, 25? Speedmaster; and a two-color, 40? Speedmaster leading the way. The web division consists of two Didde webs and a six-unit, 26? Zirkon heatset press equipped with inline pattern perfing, inline gluing, a Gämmerler rotary trimmer and folding capabilities. A Xerox DocuTech leads the variable printing division.
