Printers can use the Basis press to enter the film market at the "bottom," temporarily deal with the more intense competition, and then grow the capabilities of the press through add-on modules as their business grows, Minino adds.

Gallus has also recently announced new dual-drive print heads for its higher-end EM410 flexo/rotary screen/hot foil stamping press. The new heads offer the capability to transition from traditional pressure-sensitive substrates to unsupported films without the need for modifications to the press.
