Pandaprint will use the Versafire EV for a range of products including business cards, leaflets, booklets and more

 

An early adopter of the new Versafire EV, Pandaprint has installed the first in Scotland.

The company has opted for this new model particularly because of its fifth colour capability which will allow it to use clear, white, invisible red, neon pink and neon yellow in addition to the standard CMYK palette.

The Versafire EV, supplied with Heidelberg’s Prinect Digital Front End, will be an additional press to run alongside Heidelberg Linoprint and a Ricoh Pro 8100s.

Pandaprint, which is based in Rosyth/Dunfermline, serves a very wide range of end users from designers and advertisers to Government bodies and the financial sector to retail and healthcare. It will use the Versafire EV for a range of commercial products including business cards, leaflets, posters, perfect bound booklets and more.

‘We always look at giving customers best value so when we work out a litho price but know it’s cheaper to run digitally we will always advise them,’ said Mark Wilson, managing director. ‘The continuing expansion of digital print has led to our decision to retain the Linoprint as back up when we have tight deadlines or when one of the machines is down for maintenance.’
