Printing set up Suggestions

Hi

!!!NEED HELP!!

i am currently in the process of setting up my own inhouse printing for my design company.
i want the ability to print small run projects such asd business cards, leaftlets, flyers and even small posters.
im am quite willing to outsource larger pieces of work in the begining but would aim to take complete controil of that in the end.

essentially we need the ability to cut and fold which we can do manually to begin with and then we need some kind of fast but quality digital printer with dual side printing

any suggestions on which printer is best ????????????????????????

 

What's your volume and ballpark budget?

Are you currently running any of your own jobs? Are you currently outsourcing a good volume that you can bring in house?

If you're looking at a nexpress you're considering an investment of a couple hundred thousand minimum, is this correct?

 

Do you have the volume currently to warrant investment? I would say that the minimum investment you would need is around £10,000. Look at something like a second hand Xerox 242 to start with.

Alternatively, we currently supply digital print to many designers on a white label service. I see you are in suffolk, so we are not that far from you. Let me know if you would like to know more about our trade services.
