The Ipswich-based commercial printer, which handles B1 and B2 work for clients across East Anglia, London and the Midlands, expects to boost productivity by around 30% with the new machine, which replaces a MAN Roland R300.
Kevin Davies, managing director of the £2.5m-turnover firm, said he expected the Speedmaster to be "a lot more productive and more operator-friendly".
He said the detail of the machine was "just fantastic. Someone has thought about all the little foibles printers moan about and has addressed them all."
Davies told printweek.com that the kit "is a real operator's machine, we've been very impressed with what we've seen so far".
The 23-staff firm also runs a two-colour Heidelberg GTO and a MAN Roland R700.
