MARIETTA, Ga. - March 6, 2018 - Piedmont Graphics, a commercial printing service in the Greater Atlanta area, announces its roll out of the iGen 5 printer in partnership with Xerox. Piedmont Graphics is reportedly the only commercial print service in Georgia to offer printing with White and Clear Dry Inks.
The White Ink with its benchmark brightness and opacity can be printed over, under or next to CMYK to provide eye-catching spot effects on a wide range of specialty substrates such as colored and transparent substrates. The Clear Ink makes applications standout by enhancing photos, logos, or variable images. It also enables the ability to apply a watermark for security purposes.
The Xerox iGen 5 press offers enhanced capabilities like a fifth print station enabling Piedmont Graphics to add Orange, Green or Blue Dry Ink as an enhancement to CMYK colors. This dramatically increases the ability to match a wider variety of Pantone colors - Over 90% of the Pantone PLUS swatch book, reducing the likelihood of color mismatch between art files and actual delivered print product.
“We are very excited to be the only printing service in Georgia to own the iGen 5 with these options. This digital press takes our final product to a whole new level,” said David Van Dyke, president of Piedmont Graphics. “Our customers will love the richness of the new colors and will now have even more freedom and creativity to make their printed materials really stand out!”
