The 165,000 press has replaced the 11-staff firms DocuColor 2045 and was supplied by Litho Supplies.

Ronset managing director Peter Farnworth said the 6060 gave the firm a 60% increase in digital colour capacity.

Were going for short-run colour jobs up to 2,000 the ones that litho printers arent too bothered about, said Farnworth.

He said the 6060, which is currently doing over 200,000 clicks a month, was more reliable and gave a better result than the 2045.

The 500,000-turnover firm also has an Agfa Sherpa wide-format printer, which it uses to produce PoP material, pop-up display signage and vinyl floor graphics.
