The Canon imagePRESS C10000VP color digital press.
MELVILLE, N.Y. — September 28, 2016 — Canon Solutions America, a wholly owned subsidiary of Canon U.S.A., has announced the successful installation of a Canon imagePRESS C10000VP color digital press at industry mainstay TigerPress’s Massachusetts facility. The company’s newest installation supports its mission of providing customers with next-generation digital print solutions.
TigerPress has been a leader in instituting the newest technology and offering creative solutions to its clients. Since its inception in 1985, the company has relied on Canon equipment to deliver high quality digital products. Originally known as CopyCat, a chain of quick copy centers, TigerPress changed its name in 1997 and has since grown to a full-service print provider. TigerPress specializes in printing museum quality catalogs, books and marketing materials, while providing customers with vivid colors while avoiding the use of harmful chemicals. With sustainability at the forefront of the company’s core initiatives, TigerPress has also established a unique approach to accurate color reproduction using the most earth friendly processes. A family run business, led by husband and wife duo Reza and Jennifer Shafii, the company takes pride in delivering the best goods and services with the flexibility to meet the most challenging customer requirements.
Equally important to TigerPress’s business approach has been the expansion of its digital department. Offering online ordering, on-demand printing, and fulfillment services has enabled TigerPress to provide solutions to Fortune 500 companies for all their marketing and print needs. Spearheaded by the company’s progressive leadership team, TigerPress now offers its customers industry-leading digital print capabilities around color, quality, and production turnaround time. To stay ahead of print industry trends and its rapid evolution, TigerPress recognized an emerging need to focus on newer technologies that are paving the way in the digital printing space. Working together with Canon Solutions America and its dedicated team of sales and service professionals, TigerPress was introduced to the Canon imagePRESS C10000VP color digital press, and it hasn’t looked back since.
“We decided on the Canon imagePRESS C10000VP for very simple reasons: service and support from friends we have known for many years, and the reliability of Canon products,” explains Jennifer Shafii, CEO of TigerPress.
A part of the immediate impact and benefit of the new press has been its ability to enable TigerPress to expand its offerings for existing customers, while simultaneously paving the way to new business and a wealth of unique opportunities to attract an expanded, diverse customer base. Delivering offset-like, vibrant, and stable quality at accelerated print speeds has allowed TigerPress to vastly increase turnaround time and build on its reputation of providing customers with leading-edge service built on a philosophy of utilizing best-in-class technology.
As part of its core mission, TigerPress identifies customer needs and offers solutions to meet the expectations of various types of organizations around the country. With the Canon imagePRESS C10000VP, TigerPress is now poised to become more of a partner to its customers than ever before — as the imagePRESS’s range of applications, coupled with its reliability and capacity to handle exceptionally high volume, is intended to allow TigerPress to offer unprecedented levels of high-quality print solutions engineered to deliver production printing excellence.
“We are a G7 compliant and ISO 9001 quality certified company. The new Canon imagePRESS C10000VP has provided us with the tool we need to deliver high quality products continuously with very little down time,” explains Reza Shafii, president of TigerPress.
Combining proven imagePRESS features and new print technologies, the Canon imagePRESS C10000VP color digital press was designed to provide outstanding productivity and machine uptime for the business advantage of its users. Its versatile in-line finishing portfolio is helping Canon Solutions America customers like TigerPress develop white-paper-in, finished-product-out streamlined workflows that can directly impact revenue channels. Boasting a wide range of media support as well, users can expect to experience high-quality output on everything from textured media to vellum, film, and synthetics.
