research and development, which is the world’s highest mark on a per capita basis – a significant investment despite the country’s relatively small population. This penchant for R&D was front and centre during HP’s recent pre-drupa briefing in Israel, where the company introduced 10 new printing systems, including a completely new 29inch-format Indigo 10000 platform. It holds enormous potential to alter the landscape of both commercial printing and packaging production. Behind the enormous R&D budget put into the optics and engine mechanics of the Indigo 10000, sits HP’s all-important and ever-expanding Kiryat Gat ElectroInk plant. HP feels the liquid properties of ElectroInk positions Indigo technology in a different quality category relative to competing electrophotography/toner systems. The company abhors its Indigos being referred to as toner machines. However, I have a similar distaste for the term “digital press,” primarily because it is now an overused marketing term for a mature technology, which diminishes the value of a commercial printer’s skill. I feel the re-imaging of a drum instead amounts to an evolution in prepress that also drives modern litho presses. All print is an analogue animal and, ultimately, the term digital printing creates too much confusion between inkjet and toner processes. This is becoming ever more apparent as developers of both technologies begin to compete more directly with each other, vying for traditional litho pages. When it is commercially released in early 2013, the Indigo 10000 will be competing for these pages with the emerging cut-sheet inkjet presses carrying a similar 29-inch format size. “We believe this is going to take us into the heart of the offset market,” explained Alon Bar-Shany, VP and GM of Indigo, to some 120 journalists at the pre-drupa briefing. For nearly two decades, after arriving in the printing industry in the 1990s, based on pioneering work by Indigo founder Benny Landa, production-strength toner presses remained in a sub-20-inch format, largely because of the huge R&D costs associated with stretching out the complex optics of an electrophotographic imaging drum. The technical achievement of the Indigo 10000 presents a new printing paradigm and enormous opportunity for HP to sell more ElectroInk, particularly when the company releases derivatives of this new Series 4 platform. The HP Indigo 20000, a roll-to-roll machine aimed at flexography, and the Indigo 30000, designed for folding-carton, are both scheduled for release in late 2013. HP began producing ElectroInk in Kiryat Gat in 2004, shortly after purchasing Indigo from Landa, and the company has been adding ink-manufacturing capacity at a feverish pace ever since. During the pre-drupa briefing, Bar-Shany reported how ElectroInk usage is expected to increase at annual rate of between 25 to 30 percent. This figure clearly describes a positive trend in the amount of work produced on Indigo systems, which increased from 9-billlion pages in 2008 to an estimated 20 billion in 2012. In this 4-year period, bookended by drupa 2008 and 2012, HP installed more than 1,200 Series 3 Indigo presses, which includes the 7000 series and WS6000 series of presses. The total worldwide install base of Indigo machines now reaches over 6,000, which represents a formidable competitor of proven technology to both offset and inkjet systems. Jon Robinson, Editor

Toronto Star Press Centre Celebrates 20 Years T
he Toronto Star’s Vaughan Press Centre opened its doors in November 1992, charged with the production of the nation’s highest circulating newspaper. At the time, it was the most advanced production facility of its kind, equipped with the latest in automation. Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) would be in charge of keeping the six massive Colorman presses fed at all times. The facility also had an automatic truck unloading system which could relieve a tractor-trailer of its paper rolls in just eight minutes. The plant is the largest of 10 within the Torstar Printing Group in Ontario. In February, the Toronto chapter of the International Club of Printing House Craftsmen organized a guided tour of the $400 million facility. Today, the plant is staffed by 400 people and produces up to 55,000 copies per press, per hour. The plant handles many Torstar properties, including free commuter dailies.

As we approach yet another technology cycle, PrintAction’s Iron Index is reflecting the change in emphasis when it comes to production. Produced for more than a decade, the purpose of the Index is to chart the technological trends of a broad spectrum of printers in Canada – the vast majority of which we have tracked for over a decade. In the past year, we have witnessed a rising investment in inkjet printing technologies, though its impact is only starting to be seen in companies’ production ratios. As production inkjet technologies continue to mature, the shift from offset, and even toner, production will no doubt continue to be felt. PrintAction would like to extend its thanks to all the companies who recognize the importance of the Index by taking time to respond to this unique Canadian survey. Special thanks goes to students of Ryerson’s Graphic Communications Management program for assisting in updating this year’s list.
