Darjeeling’s Tungo steps up digital printing with RICOH

Darjeeling-based personalised gift & commercial printing shop Tungo has recently installed RICOH Pro C5300S digital colour production press, supplied and installed by Monotech Systems.

Over the last 15 years since its inception, Tungo has been serving as a complete commercial print service provider for customers from all over Darjeeling and many other cities and towns dotted around the Himalayan foothills of West Bengal. “Most of our customers are from Darjeeling. However, some from Sikkim and other parts of the region regularly come to us because we offer them diverse applications such as personalised gifts, T-shirt graphics, banners, and many digital prints,” says Pravin Gurun of Tungo.

He adds, “We are proud to say that our current production facility is backed by a team of half-dozen skilled printing professionals and a string of advanced machines comprising a digital large-format printer, cutting plotter, dye-sublimation printer, and above all is this newly arrived RICOH Pro C5300S which we opted specifically for boosting our overall commercial digital printing to a new height. This RICOH digital colour production press from Monotech Systems is ideally a game changer in digital printing for us. Its advanced features and technical proficiency are excellent.”

Being a comprehensive digital printing powerhouse, RICOH Pro C5300S is robust enough to run at the speed of 65 ppm (pages per minute). “Our first impression of this RICOH digital production press is its productivity and accuracy in print quality,” mentions Gurung, adding, “With this new machine, we are now more confident than ever to produce premium quality colour graphic prints for end products like brochures, cards, flyers, catalogues, marketing collateral and more.”

The press is compatible with a broad range of media comprising both lightweight and heavyweight stocks up to 360 gsm.“Enchanting digital printing is rather more enchanting than ever at Tungo with this RICOH Pro C5300S we purchased from Monotech Systems,” says Gurung. “We are delighted for the fact that we got our right choice of digital production press with unprecedented after-sales service support which the technical team of Monotech Systems would always provide us whenever we require,” he mentions, adding that they are now very optimistic about new business gain in near future as the new RICOH Pro C5300S is now helping them to unfold newer quality and quantity in prints on the digital printing front.
