In addition to the Profitability Seminars, Printware is offering a Tip & Tricks for iJetColor Press via WebEx. These new one hour sessions were designed specifically for iJetColor Press users and will provide them with helpful information to maximize performance and profitability with their system.  The current schedule for these sessions include:

• June 27
• July 1

iJetColor Press users may sign-up for these WebEx sessions via the same seminar link atwww.ijetcolor.com/seminar. 

The seminar series was developed to help business owners better understand how the inkjet technology of the award winning iJetColor Press, powered by Memjet, makes profitability possible in less than a year even with very modest print volumes.

“The iJetColor Press has allowed our customers to offer affordable, yet profitable, short-run 4-color printing,” commented Tim Murphy, President of Printware. “The iJetColor Press complements their print shop’s existing operations by enhancing their product offerings and reducing turnaround time on 4-color envelop jobs.” 

The seminar uses case studies from accounts to illustrate how even with a moderate demand for short-run 4-color work, profitability is possible in under twelve months in most cases. Beyond profitability, the improvement in performance and productivity is also significant allowing customers to often receive a 4-color short-run envelope job the same day rather than in 5-7 business days.

“Our customers love being able to order envelopes same day, but when it came to 4-color envelopes, they had to wait 5-7 business days. Ever since purchasing the iJetColor Press, we no longer have to have this discussion with our customers. The machine will even run a full bleed! Now we simply say, ‘Yes, you can have it today’. They love that answer,” commented Chuck McCollough, Production Manager of Kwik Kopy Mission Viejo.

The iJetColor Press is a compact, table top, 4-color inkjet press powered by Memjet technology suitable for supporting production paper stocks as heavy as .02 inch/.5 mm on up to 8.5” by 17” substrate for product personalization of:

• Envelopes
• Direct Mail and Post Cards
• Stationery
• Invitations and Greeting Cards

The iJetColor Press brings new revenue opportunities to print shops, making it extremely affordable to produce 4-color jobs and capitalize on new mailing and fulfillment opportunities. 

“We see a tremendous level of interest in the iJetColor Press as well as an understanding by shop owners of how the system will directly benefit their business. Owners have done their homework and came prepared to buy at Graphics of the Americas,” continued Murphy.
