Print Point Digital started as a full-fledged commercial digital printing service in 2016. Before that, it engaged only in graphic design. Recalling the company’s early days and phases of development, Ganesh Bramhadev Kadam, proprietor of Print Point Digital, said, “Our late father Bramhadev Namdev Kadam started the business in 1995. After indulging in different activities over a period of time we eventually embarked on digital printing, then, we never looked back.”
He continued, “We currently engage in colour and monochrome printing, embossing, digital foiling and spot UV, digital sticker cutting, etc. For these tasks, we have different machines comprising Konica Minolta AcurioPress C3070 and bizhub Press C6000 digital colour production presses, a high-speed Epson monochrome printer, and arrays of post-press equipment at our two branches, which are located at Ambernath and Ulhasnagar. Ambernath branch is where we install the new Ricoh Pro C7500 bought from Monotech Systems.”
According to Ganesh Kadam, the new Ricoh Pro C7500 has boosted the overall print quality and productivity at Print Point Digital to the next level.
“In fact, this Ricoh press is fully packed with advanced features for high-volume production. We have been running a couple of other digital colour production presses of different brand; however, this Ricoh press is unmatched in many aspects. After all, we are proud of being the region’s first owner of the RICOH Pro C7500,” he said.
He added, “Another eccentric feature of this new Ricoh digital production press is its versatility in media handling. It can grasp varieties of media for diverse applications which we provide for our customers from varied sectors, different walks of life and professional backgrounds. Most of them are from Thane and some from Mumbai or other parts of Maharashtra.”
The Ricoh Pro C7500 is an upgraded model and a successor of Ricoh Pro C7200x. This new digital press handles light and heavyweight media starting from 40- up to 470-gsm. Graphic prints produced on this digital workhorse are remarkably outpoured in the industry’s leading resolution of 2400x4800-dpi. About its speed, it operates at 85-ppm, which is upgradable to 95-ppm as per requirement.
Under the unified leadership of Ganesh Kadam, a team of more than half a dozen printing and production staff take care of the two branches of Print Point Digital, where produce whole varieties of commercial items, such as marketing collateral, catalogues, fliers, inserts, brochures, cards of all kinds, tabletop calendars, stickers, among others. Kadam is joined by his wife Swapna Ganesh Kadam in the business. He says they look forward to making their team stronger and adding more production machines like the Ricoh Pro C7500 from Monotech Systems in future.
