“With the HP Indigo press we are already seeing more revenue opportunities, greater productivity and profitability, and increased customer retention and loyalty.”

Jerry Berke,

President Lion Labels,

Approximately 65% of label jobs around the world are produced in print runs of less than 50,000 labels, or under 6,500 feet

Fact! Label and packaging print jobs are continuing to become shorter!

Fact! Customers are demanding shorter lead times and faster turnaround!

Fact! Conventional printing processes are prohibitively expensive for low volume orders and result in shrinking profit margins!

How do you adapt to these changing market trends, satisfy exacting customer demands and, at the same time, sustain a profitable printing business?

The HP Indigo press ws4500 provides a complete end- to-end solution from prepress to finishing and lowers production costs immediately in several key areas:

It eliminates the expense of films, plates or chemistry.

It generates little or no waste.

It requires far less set-up time than conventional printing.

For runs up to 6,500 feet, the HP Indigo press ws4500 significantly lowers your costs. And it integrates easily within your existing printing environment to complement the capabilities of your current equipment.

The increase in small order quantities – and the decrease in long runs–has created new opportunities and higher profit margins for the label converter and printer.
