HP today announced that Consolidated Graphics (CGX), one of the largest commercial print service providers, offering the world’s largest integrated digital printing footprint, has purchased 10 HP Indigo 10000 digital presses.
 
HP and CGX officials disclosed the purchase agreement during the drupa tradeshow in Düsseldorf, where HP is showing the HP Indigo 10000 model press—the first B2-format (750 mmx340 mm/29.5x20.9") sheetfed HP Indigo solution—publicly for the first time. CGX will begin installing the presses at locations throughout its 70-company network when the HP Indigo 10000 becomes commercially available in early 2013.
 
In addition to the 10-press purchase, Nies/Artcraft, a CGX company specializing in high-quality, targeted direct marketing services, will be a beta user for the HP Indigo 10000, receiving an early production unit later this year.
