HP Indigo has installed the new 5500 Digital Offset Press at Lange Graphics, Inc. Denver Colorado plant.
"The HP Indigo press 5500 offers both offset and photographic quality. Offset output has never looked so professional, with features like: • Superior HP ElectroInk liquid ink technology • High definition dot placement technology enables 1219 dpi and zero dot gain for superior line work and micro text printing"
Bud Lange, President of Lange Graphics, Inc. said; "The HP Indigo 5500 Digital Offset Press does a couple of things that the 5000 didn't do. The first is that the 5500 can handle up to 18 pt in thickness and the second is the opaque white ink. These are both critical for our ability to print on plastics. The HP Indigo 5500 Digital Offset Press is more efficient than the 5000."
Lange has a long relationship with HP Indigo; in fact this is their third Indigo press Lange has owned. Lange acquired its first digital offset press (Indigo UltraStream 2000) in 2001. Soon after HP purchased Indigo Lange Graphics purchased the first HP Indigo press the 5000.
Lange Graphics, Inc. has maintained a great reputation since it began doing business in 1977. Lange began printing on plastics and other specialty substrates in the 90s. They have been printing on static cling, rigid vinyl and other plastics since then. In 2008 they acquired a CREO Trendsetter 800 III Quantum Plate Imager with variable main scan resolution for lenticular printing. This, coupled with the addition of a KBA 40" UV 6 color press poised Lange to become a leader in all things plastic including motion, flip, animated and 3D lenticular. The KBA press has a UV (Ultra Violet) capability which means that the press is equipped with a UV lamp system that allows the use of a special ink formulated to cure when exposed to the UV lamps. This is why Lange can print on plastics. For more information on this visit Lange's web site at www.langegraphics.com/Lenticular-Plastic-Printing.asp. Now Lange continues to provide the very best proofing available whether they are printing on plastic or paper.
