Many printing jobs are on a "need right now" basis. That is a perfect situation for our Varioprint 110 Press. With speeds up to 110 copies per minute, we are well equipped to get it out now!

The Varioprint Press can scan, send files and print in one motion, as well as collate, staple, in-line hole punch, fold and do booklet making. Paper sizes range from 8.5" x 5.5" to 12" x 18" on thicknesses from 20# to 110# paper and cardstocks. The Varioprint can also print on tabs, preprinted theme stocks, and stationery. We can add images, merge signatures, crop and manipulate copy, as well as add shading, borders and numbers to pages.

Color

More than just a color copier, our new Xerox C1000i Digital Color Press is built to provide the campus with the highest print quality the industry has to offer. Legendary Xerox technology paired with our renown attention to the highest quality standards are built into every project we do, big or small. The C1000i along with its Fiery 150 Pro color Server can formulate, books, tickets, notepads, programs, flyer, posters, etc.

The C1000i can print on paper sizes ranging from 8.5" x 5.5" to 13" x 19", in weights ranging from 20# text to 130# cover in glossy or matte. At up to 100 impressions per minute, you can have your project quicker and without compromised quality.

Color Specialty Digital
Before now, applying full color images and type to an envelope required great expense and time. Now we can print short/moderate runs of full color envelopes with great ease and superb quality. Our new Canon C750 digital press can run eye catching full color envelopes, even variable data, in one quick pass. We can print A2 size to 10" x 13" envelopes in as quick as same day. To add to this machine's value, it can also produce 13" x 30" full length banners in full color. The Canon C750 digital press can enhance your print packages on a budget.

Offset

Offset printing has been around a long time. Before the advent of Xerographic reproduction, offset printing was the only way to get the job done. The two most notable features of offset printing are high quality registration and large scale replication quality. We use offset printing for our finer quality large scale jobs. We most often print Black and OU Gold (PMS 872), but the presses can print the full range of ink color choices on papers ranging from invitations and envelopes to text and card stocks up to 12" x 18". When a glossy paper is needed, the offset presses can rarely be surpassed for quality. OU Gold PMS 872 looks the best using the offset process.
