Latest Offerings and Updates

I wish to make a correction to the second part of last week's two-part article on my view of the future for DI printing. In this, when commenting on the Heidelberg position whereby they had stopped manufacturing and selling their Quickmaster 46-4 DI line of presses, I stated that Heidelberg was pulling out of the low end of the small press market with its Quickmaster one- and two-color presses and would instead concentrate in this market with its line of Printmaster 52 presses.

In this I made a mistake that I must put down to sloppy writing techniques. I was sure I had read somewhere that Heidelberg was dropping not just its Quickmaster 46-4 DI presses and also its Quickmaster one- and two-color presses. Whether I read this somewhere in some other little known magazine or newsletter that misinterpreted the information, whether some person suggested it to me, or whether I misinterpreted the Heidelberg press release, I cannot state. As a professional journalist however I should have checked out this data before putting into my writing. I did not do this.
