A state-of-the-art digital printer at Island Print Solutions is providing creative agencies with more choice than ever before, it has been claimed.

The Garenne Park-based company has spent £300,000 on the HP Indigo 5500 Digital Printer.

The machine is the only one installed in the island for core commercial businesses in the Channel Islands and has given local agencies far more variety in what they can offer their clients in terms of print material, according to Max Crouchley, sales and new business development director at Island Print Solutions.

‘It’s got the capacity to print on any substrate, whereas other printers are limited on the paper they can use.
