Anderson Printing Purchase HP Indigio 5500 Digita
HP today announced that it has signed a multimillion dollar
agreement with Consolidated Graphics Inc. (NYSE: CGX), one of the
largest North American general commercial printing companies, for the
installation of as many as 36 HP Indigo digital presses – including
multiple HP Indigo 7000 Digital Presses – at facilities in the United
States and the Czech Republic this year.
With annual revenues of $1.2 billion, Consolidated Graphics has 70
printing businesses in the United States and Canada, as well as a
facility in the Czech Republic. The purchase of the HP Indigo presses
with HP SmartStream Ultra Print Servers extends its presence among
major general commercial printing providers as a leader in the use of
digital printing technology.
In terms of value, the HP Indigo technology purchase represents a
significant portion of the capital expenditures Consolidated Graphics
has planned for its digital printing operations this year. Last year,
the company spent approximately $25 million on digital presses and
related technology. Press installations are scheduled to begin in June,
starting with the company’s Prague, Czech Republic, and Medford, Ore.,
facilities.
