SCI Installs HP T300 Inkjet Web for Book Printing on Coated Media

SCI executives spent months discussing options with inkjet digital press vendors last year after recognizing an untapped demand for higher-volume, lithography-quality digital printing among current and prospective clients.

The company’s most promising prospects were for coated media jobs, which SCI can deliver using Utopia Inkjet matte- and dull-finish papers for the HP T300 from Appleton Coated. The company also is testing a variety of coated media from other suppliers.

A transformative solution for the publishing market and beyond
HP’s business model for Inkjet Web Presses does away with the click charges that are common in the digital printing space, reducing the cost per page for digital printing. This, in turn, means SCI can offer highly competitive pricing to its clients while printing full-color digital jobs in significantly higher volumes.
