RRD Expands Design and Printing Capabilities Through New Digital Press

R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (RRD), a leading global provider of marketing, packaging, print, and supply chain solutions, today announced it has expanded its digital printing capabilities with the installation of the EFI™ Nozomi C18000 Plus single-pass digital inkjet printer. Located at RRD’s Packaging facility that specializes in signage and displays near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the single-pass digital press is expected to be operational by the fall of 2023. The press enables RRD to reduce time-to-market by 25%, maximize color and design options, and prioritize sustainability on large-format runs of a variety of different sized substrates while delivering consistent print quality.

The Nozomi C18000 Plus press will drive high-volume production at speeds three to five times faster than scanning superwide-format printers. This press also expedites new job setup (in as little as seven minutes), prints up to six colors, and runs continuously without having to pause printing to reload. The new addition supports RRD’s commitment to providing the highest quality results to brands looking to make a splash with retail signage and displays made from boards and corrugated to poly-based substrates.
