PRINT 01 WRAP-UP -- Lasting Impressions

In the traditional press arena, although some vendors had web offset presses running at the show, PRINT 01's emphasis still remained on sheetfed machines equipped with multiple color units, in-line UV and aqueous coating, and perfecting capabilities. In addition, UV drying/curing equipment was demonstrated on several presses from various manufacturers. The mantra of automation, makeready reductions and closed-loop color control also continues in both the sheetfed and web printing markets.
