Installation of the first HP Indigo 10000 beta systems has now been completed at U.S.-based Sandy Alexander, Israel-based Old City Press, and U.K.-based Precision Printing. The color-proofing bundled solution for the HP Inkjet Web Press family allows print service providers to check color quality offline.
Digital Printing-Liquid Toner
Recognizing that digital printing has become a mainstream technology, offset printers are increasingly adding digital capabilities to their repertoire of offerings. In some shops, short-run jobs are run entirely on digital presses. Some do short-runs on a digital device and a longer runs of the same job on a offset machine. Others combine variable content digital pages with those from an offset press in the same job.
In each case, colors have to match and the overall look and feel of the document must meet customers' requirements with minimal differences. This webinar will discuss how printers are successfully using the best features of both technologies AND managing color across offset and digital presses.
Our expert panelists will share their experiences on such key issues as:
- Ensuring jobs run on different devices look the same
- Managing paper selections
- Setting customer expectations
- Color management tools and profiles used for success
- Managing color for logos and other branding requirements

Characterizing drupa 2012 as another inkjet show is too limiting to capture the broader digital printing focus of the developments announced. Nanographic Printing, liquid-toner presses and hybrid offset-inkjet configurations where every bit as prominent, and the B2 format dominated the product introductions.
Landa Corp. announces Nanography, a new digital printing category with a low cost per page. At drupa, it will be unveiling six presses, including B3, B2 and B1 sheetfed presses and web presses in widths from 52 to 104 cm.
When the Indigo E-Print 1000 was introduced almost two decades ago as a new digital printing platform, the first question asked by most people was, “When is a larger version going to be available?” If for no other reason, it’s impossible not to see the introduction of the 29˝ HP Indigo 10000 digital press as the big news from HP’s recent pre-drupa briefing, even though by its count the company launched 10 “new” digital printing systems.
The proliferation of emerging technologies has dictated a re-birth of the printing industry.
The printer's role prior to this digital era was to put ink on paper. The printing companies that are successful today are the ones who realize that their role is to keep an eye on technological breakthroughs and evaluate how they apply specifically to their customer base. It is no longer about just printing, but rather about selling integrated cross media solutions.
While a number of printers are trying to "get in the cross media game", this webinar is designed to share with you what is working and what isn't.
Key concepts that will be explored include:
- Critical resources required to successfully implement a cross media campaign
- Identifying the right decision makers
- Selling strategies for effectively delivering your value proposition
- Advice from practitioners that are evolving their business models on the opportunities and pitfalls
