They work fine on a hand cranked sheetfed offset press, but I have yet to meet anyone satisfied with the results when they've tried that nonsense with a real web press system.I've seen the result. as I said, it's a perfectly valid solution for lithography and other short run or limited edition type work. They are not suitable for anything over a few hundred units. The time consumed exceeding that makes the work cost prohibitive.Yeah, I've seen them too. They've been around since about 1935. It's called an electrostatic mimeograph machine.I've had extensive work experience on and off over the last 20 years, in all aspects of the field. My education in the field started when I was 14, working in what would end up being my future father-in-law's print shop, printing everything from newspapers to TV guides to magazines to semester catalogs for colleges to... well, just about everything that wasn't a form or single page flyer.</blockquote>
