Following a complete acquisition of Presstek, Mark Andy announced a co-sponsored United Kingdom Open House. Hosted in London at the Presstek headquarters, the event further integrates the organizations under the Mark Andy brand portfolio and strengthens both organizations global commitment to pressroom profitability.
 
The June 6-8 Open House will consist of a morning, afternoon, and evening session repeated each of the three days. Programming for all time slots will address advancements catered to printers and converters across the industry spectrum highlighting productivity gains. The attendee pool is expected to consist of commercial printers interested in expanding their offset business into labels and label converters looking to enter the digital production space.
 
Additionally, as many European print shops adopt both offset and flexographic technologies, the event provides those in attendance an opportunity to learn how to evolve both production process into the future to gain a larger share of wallet for existing customers.
 
Live demonstrations of Mark Andy Digital One label press and Presstek 34DI digital offset press with ECO-UV will be conducted. This will be brought to life through real-time runs of commercial print work on Digital One and prime labels on the DI press.
 
The entry-level digital hybrid press, Mark Andy Digital One, was designed for profitable micro to short run labels. The affordable solution is configured with a CMYK dry-toner digital engine, directly followed by a flexo print station. The multi-purpose flexo deck supports PMS spot colors, various varnishes, cold foil adhesive, or laminating to meet any label embellishment need. As a single pass hybrid unit, it maintains a die cutting station and rewind delivering ready-to-ship product on a single machine. The Presstek 34DI with the new ECO-UV system will be demonstrated at each session as well.
