Braden Printing Launches Digital Copy Center

At left, Dennis Graves, Production Manager, and Al Braden, Founder, introduce color and B&W digital copies.

The installation of a Konica 8031 color copier and 7085 B&W copier brings new capability to the Keene market. Both machines are interfaced with PostScript 3 RIPs, providing direct output from PDF files and application files on Macs and PCs.

“Each copy is a digital original”, says Al Braden, the company’s founder. “At 31 copies per minute and 85 per minute black and white, we can produce work quickly and efficiently. With this high speed digital technology, we felt it was time to extend our range of services into the short run area. These new Konica machines give us excellent quality in both color and black and white. Being fully digital, we can format jobs to print in sequence. In most cases, books and reports come out completely collated. And we can also saddle stitch booklets up to 40 pages right on the copiers.”

“The color is really amazing. Color accuracy is very close to our press. The toner is deposited in a halftone dot pattern that looks very much like printing. We compared all the major brands for color accuracy and found Konica to be the clear winner in our tests.”

“So come in and see us for your copying and digital output projects. From full bleed posters, reports, forms, postcards—Braden Printing has a lot to offer. We’ll make it easy for you.”

PDF Digital Format Provides Standardized Output

Minimize surprises! No set-up charge for PDF files. Either Mac or PC. A PDF file is our standard format for copier output. With Adobe’s PDF format, you can lock in your fonts and graphics so they print easily and accurately.
