Xerox Versant 180
Kent-based Smart Print Services has invested in Xerox’s new Versant 180 to boost its digital printing capacity and cut outsourcing costs.
The installation of the Xerox Versant 180 allows Smart Print Services to expand its offering to cover a wider scope of digital print services and products, such as marketing collateral, magazines and banner prints. The company, which was recently acquired by Smart Office Solutions, will use new device to run bigger production jobs and produce near-litho quality at high speed.
Since the installation Smart Print Services has already seen an increase in productivity because of the device’s ability to run offline around the clock using planned jobs, and therefore get prints out to market quicker.
‘Following a successful demonstration of the device earlier this year at Xerox HQ, we recognised that the Versant 180’s print quality was exactly what we needed to stay competitive in this industry,’ said Carl Mitchell, print director, Smart Print Services. ‘We were particularly impressed by the device’s colour definition, run length and the volumes it can handle – doing all this while still remaining very easy to use.’
‘This is an exciting time for all parties involved, and a great milestone for Xerox,’ said Andrew Morrison, managing director, Xerox UK and Ireland. ‘Thanks to the Versant 180, Smart Print Services is now able to carry out larger jobs in house, instead of outsourcing them, allowing them to keep up with digital transformation whilst retaining control of their costs within the business.’
