MHM or M&R??

skent · August 27th, 2012, 03:30 PM

I need help deciding on which machine would be a better buy, a MHM or M&R. Both would be a 10 color 12 station machine. I am looking for a machine that would be ideal for contract printing. Please help!!

M&R, almost always. Except when it comes to CTS machines..

What model or budget. There are a lot of options. And if you are looking at options look also at RPM and the difference amtwelve Colour has over a ten in terms of speed in the long term, less revolutions. Also why not TAS or Anatol or sRoque?

The RPM is not available in a 12 color only the Mustang has the 12 color and 16 color format!

Given that you will mostly be contract printing I would take a long look at MHM given their FPU system. Your ability to turn a profit will be more focused on your job turnaround time due to the lower margins you are looking at with contract printing.

Just make sure you can get the service you need in a timely manner if you go MHM (check to see where said service/technicians would be coming from).

M&R would be a great choice as well it just seems that MHM is the winner over any other press when it comes to turnaround time (even if it is not as big of a difference as some advertise it being)

Then again I have no experience with either M&R or MHM so take everything I say with a grain of salt.

So Sevensky what is your opinion about the M&R?

Someone asks about MHM or M&R but there all of a sudden two videos on Mustangs hmm and he says he is the one being bullied lol.

The main benefit with the RPM is, though maybe they don't have a 12 color, you get great service.
