? You've got to be kidding!
Have you put down a deposit yet? Don't mean to be rude but you're going back in time 25 years by not utilising the off press controls. Honestly, I'd rather buy a refurbished press from the late 80s' - early 90s'. It's a buyers market.

i dont think 80 or 90s. I would go late 90's low miles. or 2000 up. certainly cheaper than new autoplate. plate cocking a must. definately need cip4

[mazengh]

i wish that was an option the money we have is a grant, and we can't go over a certain number and it has to be new...

If I dont see a picture of this , I dont believe it. I cannot accept that there is a 4color machine out there with no console. That means no remote ink control, no CIP 3, no register control , no automatisations. What kind of a mickey maus machine will that be? Buy a goddamm Gto, Buy anything with a console. Post a picture of this machine.

really? no console..

how are you going to run a brand new "computerized press", with no computer/console? i'm no pressman or servive tech - but can this be done?

[Neil Meggitt]

Yes, it's just completely pointless in having a press with technology that you can't use. Bit like buying a Ferrari and just driving it in first gear all the time.
