Nashik's Sofine Color Lab is making waves by installing the Ricoh Pro C9200 digital press to
elevate print quality standards. This strategic move reflects Sofine Color Lab's commitment
to delivering top-notch printing services and staying at the forefront of technological
advancements in the industry.
Vikrant Sonavane, Proprietor, Sofine Color Lab, who is the third generation in the business,
recalls that the company’s establishment is dated back to India’s Pre-Independence era. “It
was in the year 1943, my great grandfather BK Sonavane, who was the first generation from
the family in the business, switched to photography and opened a photo studio in the year
1957. The rest is a continuing journey,”
“Without doubt, addition of the new Ricoh Pro C9200 to our machine portfolio a few months
ago has changed the way we used to manage quality in photo and commercial colour
graphics. This digital production press is undoubtedly the most proficient digital colour press
we have ever owned. Following the installation of this Ricoh Graphic Arts Edition digital
colour production press, we have increased our sheer capability to raise the print quality bar
in photo and commercial printing,” adds Vikrant.
Complementing this digital workhorse in the company’s machine portfolio are some other
high-end production machines comprising a jet varnishing system. Main end-products of
Sofine Color Lab, apart from its foremost photo books and albums, consist of fancy wedding & greeting cards, stickers, labels, booklets, etc.
“Now, we receive tremendous positive feedback from a host of our customers with respect to
quality in the overall digital prints we produce for them using the Ricoh Pro C9200,”
emphasises Vikrant.
The Ricoh digital colour production press is engineered with unconventional features that
vanquish other presses in its class. It is capable to print vibrant graphics in resolution of
2400x4800 dpi on a range of lightweight and heavyweight media including super gloss,
coated, thick cards, etc, up to 470 gsm at the speed of 115 ppm.
Praising the boost, they have achieved in digital printing because of the ability of Ricoh Pro
C9200, Vikrant remarks, “We ideally bank on this new Ricoh digital press from Monotech
Systems to meet the rightly demanding standards of our customers from different market
segments and industrial clusters.” He conclusively mentions that they truly oblige to
Monotech Systems for the machine and after-sales service support they get whenever
required, irrespective of time and circumstances.
