If you are looking for a competitive advantage – the Truepress delivers. It employs water-based pigment inks. It features a minimum droplet size of 2 picoliters and can output at 1,440 x 1,440 dpi with a maximum sheet size of 20.8 x 29.1 inches. It prints on coated and uncoated cut sheets, including any gloss or matte standard stock, with no need for a precoating stage. A postcoat unit applies a spot coat to protect image areas. An infrared drying unit dries the sheets before delivery, allowing sheets to go immediately to postpress.

The company that is first in North America to utilize this technology is Foremost Communications.  They are a provider of media communications and marketing services  that purchased the printer to help grow their targeted direct marketing and personalized packaging.

“Our first live job on the Truepress JetSX was a short-run, customized pocket folder for a resort in Michigan,” VanderHooning, COO, said. “Sheets were printed with a solid green color. Other digital presses would have had trouble maintaining color consistency across the sheets. The resort’s management group was impressed with the output. The color quality that closely matches offset and data-driven technology enabling 100-percent personalization make this solution unique.”
