For printers who want to achieve greater productivity through the equipment they use, Mitsubishi's new 41-inch sheetfed platform, represented at Print '09 by the Diamond V3000LX, provides an excellent solution. With its larger sheet size, wide stock range capabilities and numerous operational enhancements, the Diamond V3000LX makes it easy for printing companies to realize tremendous productivity gains.

A six-color Diamond V3000LX with UV coater headlined the MLP exhibit. The wide stock range sheetfed press ensures smooth, markless printing on lightweight paper, plastics and carton stock all the way up to 40-point.

The Diamond V3000LX offers lots of special advantages for consistent quality and speedy turnarounds, including SimulChanger and Diamond Color Navigator.

SimulChanger exemplifies Mitsubishi's commitment to automating makeready tasks. The simultaneous plate-changing system replaces old plates with new ones on every printing unit in a single operation in just over one minute.

Diamond Color Navigator, Mitsubishi's 2009 InterTech Technology Award-winning color-adjustment system, earned a Must See 'em designation for its contribution to the printing industry. With Diamond Color Navigator, press operators can perform precise color adjustments by using their own intuitive color sense rather than attempting to interpret the CMYK balance necessary to achieve a desired color match.

Booth presentations, delivered several times daily during the six-day show, were well attended. They included live job changeovers and descriptions of production-enhancing technology available on Diamond V series sheetfed presses. Four different posters were printed as souvenirs.

Historical retrospectives in print, display graphics and video commemorated the MLP USA 25th anniversary.
