Wright Printing installed Fujifilm’s third generation J Press 750S.
“We’ve experienced double-digit growth over the years,” said Mark Wright, owner, Wright Printing. “It’s due to the impressive line-up of J Press digital inkjet technology we have acquired.”
Joining two existing J Press 720S presses within the Wright Printing facility in Omaha, NE, its J Press 750S is the first U.S. install.
“The speed and size increases on the J Press 750S are fantastic,” said Andy Cowles, digital production manager, Wright Printing. ...[T]he J Press 750S expands options for us as we anticipate run lengths upwards of 5,000 sheets. Increased run lengths result in outputting higher volumes of work, with uptime near 97%.”
Wright knows color consistency for brand owners is critical.
"With our J Press line-up, we operate three shifts, five days a week, all-process color, on 128 different stocks," he said. "The colors do not vary, color consistency with the J Press is second to none; it’s the truth. When clients look at the output, they say ‘Oh, that’s offset’ and I proudly tell them, ‘No it’s not!’”
“We can run the same job on all three presses and match them today, tomorrow, and in the future," Cowles added. "The first sheet out is the last sheet out, because we take that sheet and we set it right on top of the load, and we send it with the job because it’s perfect.”
The J Press 750S is capable of generating 3,600 B2 sheets per hour, for both static and variable jobs, with a new maximum sheet size of 23” x 29.5” (585mm x 750mm) delivering a six-up imposition of letter-size output.
The J Press 750S features FUJIFILM Dimatix Samba printheads along with a 6-up letter size imposition and increased speed.
“It’s a lot easier to sell clients a product when you can hand them the exact output,” said Wright. “We proof on the J Presses, and we are literally giving the client the final product up-front.”
