IGI installed a new RMGT 920PF4 LED UV press in May 2026, expanding offset printing capacity by 25% and adding faster turnaround, sharper print quality, larger format capability, and measurable environmental benefits to every project it runs. Whether your next job is 500 postcards or 50,000 catalogs, IGI now has the capacity and technology to produce it with the same reliable service you already expect, backed by real gains in speed and quality.

Why Does a Bigger Press Matter for Your Job?

A larger press means IGI can now scale more efficiently across short runs, mid range jobs, and longer runs alike.In the past, certain job sizes were harder to accommodate efficiently as volumes grew. The new press removes that ceiling. Short runs, mid range jobs, and long runs are all produced with the same fast turnaround and quality standard, with better gang run efficiency across the board.

How Does the New Press Increase Speed Without Sacrificing Quality?

The press prints 24 by 36 inch sheets at eight up, compared to six up on IGI's previous equipment, which supports larger format pieces, faster turnaround, and jobs turned around with more confidence against tight deadlines.More pages per sheet means fewer press sheets required for the same job, which reduces both cost and production time while still meeting demanding schedules.

Does LED UV Technology Actually Save Time on Rush Jobs?

Yes. LED UV curing reduces drying time to zero, since sheets are instantly cured and ready for finishing the moment they leave the press. There is no spray powder and no set off risk. Work can move immediately into cutting and binding without waiting on the 24 hour drying window conventional offset requires. For a job like 2,500 event programs that need to be printed, folded, and delivered by end of day tomorrow, that difference can be the reason a deadline gets met.

What Environmental Benefits Come With LED UV Printing?

LED UV technology uses roughly one eighth of the power a conventional UV lamp system uses, and the LED light source can switch on and off instantly to match the job, cutting standby power use even further during changeovers. It also produces zero ozone emissions and no infrared light, which means no need for deodorizing equipment or exhaust ducts, making it practical even for print shops in congested urban areas. Ink used in the process is fully recyclable, and lower energy use translates directly into reduced CO2 emissions. As one example, a 10,000 piece nonprofit fundraising mailer now uses roughly 200 fewer sheets in setup and produces zero VOC emissions during printing.

Does This Improve Print Quality Too?

Yes, across the board. The new press delivers exceptional color consistency, sharper detail, and smoother solids, along with perfect front to back registration through its two over two perfecting capability, which matters most on catalogs, booklets, and direct mail pieces where dimensional stability affects how a piece is perceived. Because there is no infrared light involved, heat output is significantly reduced, so printed sheets do not shrink the way they can under conventional UV curing. On uncoated paper specifically, LED UV ink sits on the surface without soaking in or shifting color, giving brochures, annual reports, and marketing materials a noticeably cleaner finish.

Can This Press Handle Materials Standard Offset Cannot?

Yes. Because sheets do not shrink under heat, the press is compatible with resin film and other specialty media, along with synthetic paper, metalized paper, and additional specialty stocks that traditional offset cannot handle consistently. As one example, healthcare providers can now order waterproof synthetic paper patient information cards built to survive repeated handling and sanitizing.
