It’s not as difficult to find 15 minutes of downtime between runs or over lunch and be- ing able to download the slides makes it feel like you’re right there with the presenter.” Landmark Packaging Adds Two Xante Digital Corrugated Printers Landmark Packaging, a national supplier of custom box- es and packaging supplies, has installed two new Excela- graphix 4800 digital package printers at its new facility in Aurora, Colorado. The two printers, combined with the existing Excelagraphix 4200 printer, will provide more pro- duction capacity in order to keep up with the company’s expanding business.
