Looking at Print's Future

Last week, I had the pleasure of spending some time at Strategic Content Imaging in Secaucus, NJ. I was there for other business, but I had a chance to see one of their 30"-wide continuous inkjet presses running along at about 800-feet-per-minute. The back-end of the press (a Magnum Digital Flexbook system) was creating individual book blocks of plow-folded, six-page signatures which were then stacked for the perfect binders.
