We make IR dryers/Powder Spray attachments
for the 11x17 market (and a few larger ones)

AB Dick, ATF Davidson, Multigraphics, Heidelberg, etc...

We have a machine shop and make all our own parts (I think

I've love to have a nice 11x17 offset press. It's the workhorse of all
manner of campaigns!

Hell,

AB Dick 360's are practically free these days.
Supplies aren't however.


HP practically gives away printers. But, charges an arm and a leg for a
toner or ink cartridge.
