Inkjet Will Change the Way You Order Print Forever

Inkjet

The Kennickell group is proud to announce the newest addition to our pressroom.?The KM-1e, 23”X 29” sheet fed digital inkjet press.?What does this mean for our clients? In short, better quality, faster deliveries, and reduced costs.?This is a truly revolutionary addition for the company and our clients will start to benefit right away.?With digital inkjet comes the following:

·????????No more press checks, the proof we send you is the actual finished product

·????????Great quality, inkjet exceeds anything we can produce on an offset press

·????????Fully variable data, we can change images and messages from one sheet to the next

·????????Reduced mailing cost, we can print mailers, address them at the same time and at high speeds

·????????Direct mail letters, we can print and address 18,000 per hour with no need to use pre-printed letterhead shells

·????????Plastics, Styrene and synthetics, we can print on all of this, up to 24 points in thickness

·????????Perfect bound books are printed in page order, so no collating needed, saving time and money

·????????“Print on demand” now makes economic sense for even larger multipage documents

·????????Reduced energy and paper use: no plates, no make ready time no wasted paper

The new “print on demand” model.?Let’s say you have a 48-page brochure that you use 20,000 per year.?Most companies would like to print in smaller quantities than a year’s supply.?They want to do this, so they don’t have their money tied up in inventory (boxes of brochures) and the risk of a change being needed thus making what is left obsolete.??However due to the cost per piece it was hard to justify doing smaller runs on a digital press.?On most digital presses the cost per piece could easily be four to five times more expensive than the cost to run all at once on an offset press.

With inkjet presses, which run much faster than digital toner presses you could decide to run a few thousand at a time of this brochure and keep the cost per piece around the same as offset.?With an inkjet press we can run a thousand of these brochures before the make ready is complete on an offset press.?No more worries about changes, no more cash tied up in inventory.

If you are not familiar with inkjet there is a reason. There are only a few hundred of these presses in the US and with the investment being over seven figures not many can afford to move to this technology, but all wish they could.
