November 22, 2005 -- Technicians from Heidelberg USA, Inc. recently completed the installation of a new Speedmaster (SM) 52-P lithographic press in the Printing and Publishing lab at Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, WI. The two-color perfecting press can print up to 15,000 sheets per hour on a maximum sheet size of 14” x 20”.
