“Part of SnugZ’s mission is to provide customers with the best quality that we can. When we heard that the SurePress would be able to offer us better quality, we were very interested,” said Jennifer Imes, digital print manager, SnugZ. “One of the features that we love about the SurePress is its repeatability—it allows us to take a job that we printed a year ago and print it today and have it look exactly how it did a year ago. In the past, we have had issues getting fine detail, especially in small text, but the SurePress has allowed us to print small text that is legible, which is an amazing selling point for our customers.”

Delivering exceptional print quality and accurate color reproduction, as well as innovative printing features, the L-4033AW is a cost-effective and reliable solution that allows printers to expand their service offerings and improve profitability.

Imes continued, “Something that is really important to SnugZ is our relationship with our suppliers. The SurePress has not only given us great quality and repeatability, but it has given us a growing relationship with Epson that we truly value.
