Mitsubishi Imaging Hosts Open House

Mitsubishi Imaging held an open house at its Rye, N.Y. location recently, where industry executives gathered at the Mitsubishi Center for Education (MCE) to see a demonstration of the 4-up Ryobi 780E press and how to achieve profitable process color printing with the DPX 4 Eco and Silver DigiPlate.

“Our customers are telling us that they are faced with the need to drive down costs, to automate production and they can’t afford to sacrifice quality. An affordable CTP solution, such as Silver DigiPlate and DPX 4 Eco, combined with the sophisticated press technology of the Ryobi 780E press, can deliver the quality that a printer needs to thrive while adding to their bottom line,” said Frances Cicogna, director of Graphic Arts Marketing at Mitsubishi Imaging.

The DPX 4 Eco helps small to mid-sized printers obtain the benefits of CTP without the high costs associated with metal CTP. The DPX 4 Eco uses an eco-friendly processing technology to deliver plate development while reducing chemistry usage and waste by up to 50 percent. Since the DPX 4 Eco has a small footprint, it takes up less space which means more room for other equipment.

The Ryobi 780E press is ideal for short-run, quick turn-around jobs with automated features that enable faster makeready. Requiring minimum installation and space, it is a cost-effective model for the half-size printer. The Ryobi 780E is compatible with the DPX 4 Eco for profitable 4-up process color printing.

“Digital is capable of some of the work but if you want to grow and be more profitable you really need to be able to handle offset printing jobs in-house,” said Bob Gajewski, owner of Trend Graphics, who recently upgraded his digital print shop with a DPX 4 and 4-up press.
