    Rena Mach5 to replace my offset press?

    The samples they sent me were okay. They called and asked me what I thought..i told them some of the colors were bland etc, like others here. Rena guys asked for vectored artwork from jobs I run and said they just got in custom color profiles from Memjet and that that would help. Big difference...

    Other Uses for Xante or OKI Based product besides envelopes?

    I am working with a local dealer here in Philly. It sounds like all other things, a great service resource can make or break an install. I am not considering an OKI right now, even though it is the same engine! When you say addressing, do you actually address and barcode and print the logo at...
