"The increase in e-mails has reduced the volume of letterheads ordered and there is a trend towards us handling more promotional material which could lead us to full colour work in the future," said Pingel.
The company is replacing a six-year-old QM46 which had been bought second hand and which had clocked up 12 million impressions.
Six years ago was when Heidelberg totally revamped the QM46 with over 2,000 changes including the introduction of laser setting ink ducts, the move to a solid impression cylinder and the capacity for retrofitted numbering and perforating as well as small sheet or envelope feeding.
Auto Printers is retrofitting the numbering unit from its old machine.
The company uses an old TOK for perforating and as a printing supplement when demand peaks.
The company has polyester CTP device that will keep the press fed to offer the company's local customers a reliable 9am to 5pm service.
