"By implementing the imagePRESS C6000 and C6000VP, we will be able to save approximately 25% from our previous `older generation` digital printing solutions through a combination of higher productivity and lower supply costs," said Dean Lyettefi, Operations Manager, Minuteman Press of Cambridge.

This assured us that our investment will be supported by a company committed to the highest standards," Lyettefi added.
