Coldset Web Presses -- Newspapers Staying Cool

The new 6x2 press is called the Colorman XXL, and it has a top operating speed of 90,000 cph, depending upon the cutoff. Compared to a 4x2 press producing 48 pages, it gets the job done with one-third less units and one-third fewer reel stands. The Colorman XXL can produce a 72-page paper utilizing one-fourth fewer units and one-fourth less splicers than a 4x2 system producing a 64-page edition.
