    hi everyone! Thanks for all the good advise and will just shop for a print broker for the large runs; and, try to get a canon imagerunner, xerox or KM as soon as I hammer out the specfic items and measure the cost. I'll look for something used to start. Hopefully, I'll be able to get a "Big...

    Introduce yourself!

    Hi, my name is Lisa and I am the owner of an advertising agency which designs for print, web design, and video. All the artsy stuff. I have been looking to expand into printing, but the more I learn the less I think it will be profitable. I would like to introduce myself to develop contacts...

    Help!! I know nothing about printing

    Is there absolutely any way to do a transitional phase into printing? Without paying 2M to start? I know I would be able to do low runs on digital printers, small newsletters, etc. I guess I need a partner for the larger press runs. Any suggestions? Any printing brokers out there that would...

    Help!! I know nothing about printing

    that's the conclusion I am getting at also. I would love to get into the printing industry and thought that digital press would be a nice transition; but, as I add up the cost of digital printing and the prices offered out there, I don't think I will come out ahead. Any other ideas? Like I said...

    Quark 7 extremely slow!

    I think it is Quark version 7. Version 6 had no speed issue. It worked fine. Once Quark 8 came out, I ordered the upgrade and loaded it in. It works "like normal" again. I couldn't tell you why Version 7 was slow in saving or completing tasks. But, Quark obviously got out the kinks in...

    Help!! I know nothing about printing

    I originally starting looking into KM models, but stopped, because I contacted xerox. Thought I was narrowing it down, but the more I told them I needed, the more the price went up. I researched a little to learn exactly which models with xerox would work, only to find out that their lease...
