Buying a Digital Press (Now)? -- Waldman

Checking Consumable Costs
We figured the cost of the consumables (not including the paper, which was a standard 80# gloss text) to be about 9 cents per side. The quality was more than acceptable and I also had a PMS built from four-color, which was almost dead on. I was very impressed with the overall quality of the printed piece. It can print a full tabloid size sheet two-sided, four-color bleed. Also, since it has a PostScript RIP, it can do variable imaging. I know this sounds crazy, but unless you already have a market that needs real productivity this isn't a bad way to get your feet wet.
