King Installs New Web Press

To cost-effectively meet growing demand for short and medium run-length book titles that are expensive to produce using existing analog or digital printing systems, book manufacturer King Printing Co. Inc. has installed a new HP T300 Color Inkjet Web Press.

The high-volume digital color web press adds to the company's extensive line-up of digital and analog presses.

King Printing also is installing a new Hunkeler PF7 Double Plow Folder from Standard Finishing Systems for streamlined, inline finishing that increases overall throughput.

"By meeting publishers' medium-run needs, the HP T300 is changing the dynamics of the publishing supply chain, reducing the warehousing and waste of the analog book printing world," said Aurelio Maruggi, vice president and general manager, Inkjet High-speed Production Solutions, HP. "Working with Standard and Hunkeler, we are providing a unique, efficient solution for print-on-demand publishing that will give King Printing a competitive edge in the market."
