WEB OFFSET REPORT -- Make Ready for Change

According to Peter Stämpfli, company board member, a complete make-ready of the press takes about 20 minutes, while a form change within a run can be accomplished in 15 minutes. The company exec notes that one of the pilot jobs produced was a 16.5x11.6˝ catalog with 1,460 pages and a segmented circulation of 10,000 copies. He says the project was produced considerably more efficiently on the DICOweb than would have been possible on an eight-color convertible sheetfed press.
