H&H Reeds Printers has invested in a Heidelberg Linoprint CP digital press, which the company says will match the quality of its litho production. 

‘Colour calibration and connectivity was key to our decision,’ said managing director Andy Jackson.  ‘The new Heidelberg Digital Front End was convincing. It means our digital printing will be totally Prinect integrated and will match the litho side. Although there is no ISO colour standard for digital, Heidelberg will calibrate the new press to our own in-house standard and we believe the colour match will enable customers to switch work between technologies with confidence and with the knowledge that work is produced to give them the optimum value.’

The company runs a Speedmaster XL 74-4+L litho machine and last year it upgraded to a Polar 78N to run alongside its remaining Polar 115. It was also an early adopter of Prinect Postpress Manager.

H&H Reeds Printers serves a comprehensive market, from councils and local government through to large and small independent customers.
