EFI has announced that El Paso, Texas-based Eureka! Signs has installed an EFI VUTEk GS3250 Pro UV flatbed/roll printer. The company – a manufacturer of awnings used in the retail industry – has expanded its graphics capabilities with the new, 3.2-meter wide printer to meet growing demand. Adding high-end print capabilities is one of the last links for the company to establish a complete, in-house manufacturing operation for full-color, custom-printed awnings. Prior to the printer installation, Eureka! Signs outsourced printing work required for awnings, which added time and cost to the process. Moving forward, Eureka! Signs meets its clients’ 3M MCS Warranty requirements internally, using the new printer to produce customer jobs on 3M media with EFI VUTEk GS 3M Premium UV Ink. Because of the existing demand for printed awnings, the company said the printer purchase was a no-risk investment, plus, the VUTEk GS3250 Pro printer helps with new opportunities. The new printer gives Eureka! Signs an opportunity to add more local graphics-printing opportunities to the national account awning work it provides. The company is already earning new print work from customers in El Paso and nearby Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, because it is one of the few businesses in the region offering high-end, UV-inkjet superwide-format printing the VUTEk GS3250 Pro provides.
