MERCURY PRINT PRODUCTIONS -- A Digital Thrust

Nonetheless, the story of the printer's origins is worth making a short trip back in time. The year was 1969. With a family to support and facing the loss of her job when her in-plant printing department was being phased out, Valerie Mannix pitched the idea of buying the printing equipment and continuing to do the parent company's work as an outside supplier. Thus Mercury was borne with a single printing press in the basement of Mannix' Rochester, NY, home.
