As a mid-size business with big ambitions, the Printing House has worked with Xerox to grow its business, setting up a new digital printing arm and installing Xerox’s DocuColor 5000. At the same time, the Printing House is utilising the XMPie software which will help the company’s customers create customised documents that open up new ways for them to communicate with the end-user and significantly increase standard response rates.
Peter Harrison, production director of The Printing House, said, “The arrival of Xerox’s DocuColor 5000 and XMPie software represents a new era at the Printing House. Both the machine and software are easy to use, maintaining the high quality colour printing we have provided for more than 30 years while addressing our customer’s changing requirements. In business terms this means that we can address our current business more effectively and strive to be successful in new markets.”
Commenting on the deal Peter Taylor, Director and General Manager, Graphic Arts, Xerox UK said,” The Printing House’s decision to install the DocuColor 5000 is once again recognition of the advancements digital printing technology has made. More than ever, digital printing is being considered by traditional printers alongside other methods and is offering commercial businesses the opportunity to be more productive and profitable.”
The DocuColor 5000 is designed for print providers that average between 30,000 and 150,000 impressions per month. It features 2400 x 2400 dpi print resolution and state-of-the-art laser technology. The DocuColor 5000’s 32-beam laser – compared to a typical 2-beam laser – allows the press to scan more data faster and at a higher resolution. It also offers tighter registration and a wider choice of colour management capabilities than light-production digital colour systems now on the market. The press is designed to produce marketing brochures, posters, customised direct-mail pieces and more.
XMPie software helps graphic designers, marketing companies and print providers develop creative, customised marketing programs that significantly increase standard response rates and open up new ways for marketing professionals to communicate with their customers.
