MJ Impressions provides high quality creative design, print and copying to a wide range of prestige clients, including financial institutions, architects, construction companies, government departments and petrochemical companies. Director Mark Robertson says: "We get lots of architectural drawings in color, perhaps as simple as monochrome A1 plans just marked up in color. Clients want quality color copies, quickly, so we have a copying system that takes it straight from the Colortrac to one of four HP inkjets. We've had our return in investment several times over. So if we needed a replacement, we would buy another one. And when we need to equip our other offices, we would choose Colortrac again, without hesitation."
A Colortrac SmartLF wide format scanner combined with a universal
repro stand, SmartWorks Pro Copier software and a wide format printer of your choice gives you a
high end wide format copier capable of handling even your most demanding wide format copying tasks.
