[email protected] Kodak and Timsons Collaborate on Next-Generation Book Production System Powered by Kodak’s Stream Inkjet Technology LISBON, PORTUGAL, March 6—Kodak and Timsons Printing Machinery today announced the TIMSON T-Press, the fastest, widest digital inkjet press available for the production of black- and-white trade and textbooks. A fully digital duplex, monochrome book printing system manufactured by Timsons and powered by KODAK Stream Inkjet Technology, the TIMSON T-Press delivers the greatest productivity, functionality and cost-effectiveness of any digital press. The T-Press is a combination of KODAK Stream Inkjet Technology and Timsons’ material handling capabilities offering real production speed and throughput. Clays, the book division of St. Ives Group from the UK and one of the largest sites in the world with book solutions from Timsons and Kodak, will be the first company to adopt the TIMSON T-Press. “The new capabilities of the TIMSON T-Press will enable Clays to continue to be a leader in book production efficiency and to expand the solutions we provide to our publishers,” said Kate McFarlan, Managing Director, Clays. “We are confident that with these investments we will provide the broadest, state-of-the-art set of services that will support our business objectives and our customers’ current and evolving needs.” Designed at the outset as a monochrome solution, the TIMSON T-Press is targeted for digital production of between 5 and 14 million books annually.
