Océ Helps Make Personalized Washington Times Edition a Success

Having a weekly mailed edition made The Washington Times a perfect candidate for the trial. Traditional home delivery via route carriers has been an obstacle for correctly delivering personalized newspapers, but mailing resolves the problem. The weekly edition is usually 40 pages on tabloid-sized sheets, which fits the Océ JetStream 2200 full color inkjet press. The 10-1/4 x 13-1/2” pages were imposed two-up across the printer’s 20-1/2” web. The edition is usually 70-75 percent monochrome in content, with full color front and back pages and several full color illustrations. The Océ JetStream printer prints each newspaper as an individual piece with the appropriate content. This makes personalization a simpler process.
