Digital Printing-Toner - Cut Sheet (Mono)

As art books grow more materially impressive, they remind us that technology’s sword cuts two ways.

Canon U.S.A. has introduced new imageRUNNER ADVANCE models, and an output and device management solution, uniFLOW Version 5.4.

At a recent open house held at its Print Media Center in Atlanta, Heidelberg featured its expanding digital portfolio to more than 40 customers. The open house gave customers a deeper understanding of how Heidelberg’s digital solutions can maximize their profitability while increasing their applications and optimizing their productivity. "We see digital as a part of the complementary mix in our customers print portfolio," said Andy Rae, senior vice president, equipment.

In October, Xerox celebrated the 25th anniversary of its DocuTech product line. The line, which was first introduced in 1990, was designed to help companies produce brochures, newsletters and sales reports, and allowed electronic images to be sent from remote computers, to then be edited and shared over computer networks. The DocuTech’s development program spanned a decade and involved several thousand engineers. "We always had a sense, even from the beginning, that we were doing groundbreaking work and it was going to be very special," relayed Randall Hube, manager of Litigation and Strategic Technical Services in Xerox Intellectual Property Operations, and also a member of the DocuTech development team.

Pennsylvania-based Nuss Printing expanded its fleet with the recent installation of a Canon varioPRINT DP 110 digital production press.

Twenty-five years ago today, everything changed for in-plants. On Oct. 2, 1990, Xerox introduced the DocuTech 135 Production Publisher, a device that single-handedly ushered in the print-on-demand era.

On request, Heidelberg now supplies all Linoprint CV/CP systems with the Prinect digital front end.

In the past financial year, Heidelberg continued to strengthen the services sector through new acquisitions.
