Unfortunately there are too many variables to fit this into a neat little answer. Quantity will be a factor, then it will come down to the providers equipment sizes. If it is small enough and a small enough quantity, it would probably run digitally, but, now you need to consider how thick the...

One issue your customer may have with this is that depending on how they are using them ( laser printer) if their fusor gets too hot it may cause ink set off from the printing of the color

Try GPA- 1-800-395-9000

Just a word of caution- we went from having an Indigo to having toner based equipment and could no longer UV coat as the UV coating would flake off. Had to buy a laminator. Indigos are much more expensive to run than a goox copier (although the indigo quality is far superior)

I worked for one such family myself, they would get into an argument and put me in the middle and try to get me to take sides. I stayed for about a year and a half.

Work for a small commercial printer in (25 employees) 7 people furloughed, and the CSR/Estimators are taking 1 day off a week with no pay (20% cut). The owner told me he is planning on getting back to normal in August as long as work picks up- BUT- there are a few people that are furloughed that...

Try GPA (Gummed papers of America) 800-395-9000 they should have what you're looking for (I am not affiliated with them)

Our Veritiv Rep just left. She stopped in with the news. Hope you have another supplier for bright stock (Astrobrights, Domtar hots etc). You think for the "Largest" paper seller in the country, wouldn't get bullied as much, but you can't piss the wrong folks off I guess. NO SOUP FOR YOU!

I concur with the EFI software comment- I think they are ripe for a class action lawsuit

I know this discussion has been kicked around several times, but we recently got rid of our Indigo 7600 for a Canon 10000 (not my idea). We never had issues with the Indigo and UV coating, but with the Canon, nothing but trouble. We have one customer that we print on a cling vinyl and UV coat-...

We've let go 5 people in 6 months. So I have gone from 9 hour days to 10-12 hour days plus some weekends- Nice being on salary. Meanwhile ownership still drives in very expensive cars and eats out every night and works 3-4 hours a day and tells us how bad they have it.

Stay away from EFI Pace (probably too much for a single user). I am currently setting up a system called Print Logic out of Ireland, it appears pretty straight forward, and is like 150.00 a month (they are just entering the US market)

I am not affiliated with them in any way, but Case paper has an online calculator that I use all the time- http://www.casepaper.com/resources/paper-price-calculators/calculators/

I have worked in commercial printing since I was 12, I am 55 now. This industry will collapse when the "old folks' are gone. The designers don't know how to prepare files properly (Bleeds, embed fonts and art). I asked one the other day to send a die-line for a pocket folder and got-What's...
