In working with us, you'll find that our company is not overly regimented. Everyone understands their role but is willing to help out wherever needed to see a job through. You'll never hear a member of our staff say, "that's not my job."

Though we believe whole-heartedly in this open approach, it's necessary to separate our company into a few departments. Whether it's Customer Service or production, it takes everyone we have to make our clients look their best.

• 

  Binding and Mailing

  The bindery and mailing departments at Silver Communications have recently been updated to include several machines which employ the newest technologies available. From automated cutting,
  sheet-fed folding, computerized gathering, stitching and trimming to multi-piece"matched" mailing, the variety of services available is awesome. Silver also offers scoring, perforating, die-cutting, embossing and foil-stamping as "value added" services.

• 

  Cold-Set Web Press Department

  Silver Communications is known primarily as a cold-set web newspaper printer.
  The company currently operates a 13 unit
  multi-color Goss Community web press.
  The machine services a wide variety
  of clientele including newspaper publishers, designers, trade and professional associations, high schools, colleges, and community centers.

  Operating the press are three shifts of cold-set web specialists each headed by printing professionals with decades of experience and expertise. This is where the magic of the printing process happens... and these are the magicians.

  Commercial Sheet-Fed Printing

  For servicing our customers' commercial printing requirements, Silver Communications operates a five-color, fully automated Komori Lithrone L128. This press is capable of printing very high resolution multi-color work on coated and uncoated paper for use in projects incorporating text printed on the Goss Community, as well as stand alone projects.

  For smaller office supply and stationary suite printing we offer a Ryobi 3302 two color press.

  Customer Service

  Silver Communications prides itself on it's responsiveness and flexibility.

  This starts with the Customer Service Department. We realize that for your publication to be completed well and on time, all company functions must be coordinated from the point of contact.

  Our Customer Service Representatives are in constant touch with all production departments
  in order to assure that we as an organization can offer you the quickest response, and the most
  efficient production flow from pre-press through delivery.

• 

  Electronic Pre-Press

  The interpolation of electronic files for use as
  printed matter has been prevalent for about twenty years. Silver Communications employs some of the finest pre-press technicians in the area.
  Coming to this specialty from former positions as varied as photography, typesetting, camera/stripping, graphic design and press work,
  these professionals are up to most any technical challenge.

  As our equipment list will show, we operate both
  a file-to-film workflow as well as a high speed "computer to plate (CTP)" workflow. This not only provides great flexibility during heavy volume times but assures a full "back-up" system in the event of technical problems with one or the other device.

• 

  Traditional Camera and Stripping

  Few printers offer a full array of electronic pre-press services as well as traditional camera work and stripping. Silver Communications is one.
  If you love the feel of waxed layout and mechanical artwork we'll shoot it and strip it for you. We have camera staff that love to see traditional print "mechanicals" come through our doors!
