Repro & Press Solutions buys Mutoh ValueJet 1324 from Colourgen reseller, Litho Supplies

Luton-based Repro & Press Solutions, a plate and digital print provider, has just purchased a Mutoh ValueJet 1324 eco-solvent large format printer from Colourgen reseller, Litho Supplies, in order to meet customer demand for roll-ups.

Steve Loasby, Owner of RPS, explains, “We had one customer in particular that kept asking us if we could produce their roll-ups, which at the time we couldn’t.  Realising we were missing out on a fair amount of work, we starting evaluating suitable printers so that we could do the work rather than have him going elsewhere for it.  We looked at several different models and none of them fitted our requirements quite as well as the Mutoh ValueJet 1324.  There were several factors in its favour â€" cost and print quality being key with good productivity also being important to us, but also the fact that it is nice and compact â€" some of the printers we looked at were simply too big for our premises even though there was little difference in their actual print width.”

Steve continues, “So far, we are printing the roll-ups for this particular client, but we are now doing posters for several customers and will look to promote the production of banners and other outdoor signage in the not too distant future.  We are extremely pleased with the Mutoh â€" it’s been very easy to use and understand and we’re really looking forward to doing more with it soon.”

The new 4-colour, ValueJet 1324 (54") wide format printers is the fastest ValueJet in the Mutoh range.  As well as incorporating Mutoh's proven design features,these printers have a brand new drop-on-demand printhead with 1440 nozzles to deliver stunning performance at up to 29m²/h as well as improved print quality at higher speeds. Pricing is ￡9,950 SRP ex VAT.
