  1. Why did Heidelberg discontinue DI presses?

    I like our QMDI, and we were close to buying a Presstek press (the Ryobi rebadged) but went with a used QMDI Pro. We get the same ghosting issues, and we are happy as we run 9500iph. The plates are too expensive! We're going to conventional and the difference in plate costs will give us an...
