Success in direct mail with Kyocera production printing!

This article has been adapted from an Inkjet Insight article written by Elizabeth Gooding. MCS partnered with Kyocera to supply the company with the product.

To be a success in direct mail, you need to deliver targeted messages directly to your audience through physical mail, such as postcards, flyers, or brochures. A successful direct mail marketing campaign creates a personal connection and drives strong engagement, but even the top direct mail marketing companies face challenges.

Direct mail printers face challenges such as high production costs, long turnaround times, and maintaining high print quality at an affordable price.

While these challenges can cause serious problems, successful direct mail marketing companies have turned to one solution. Inkjet printers offer faster speeds, greater flexibility, and lower costs, enabling printers to deliver high-quality, personalized mailings more efficiently than ever before.

That’s the story of this Pennsylvania-based direct mail company.

The background

Graphcom is a marketing firm based in Pennsylvania. This direct mail company is known for its expertise in creative and production services. In the past, they relied on a mix of offset, toner, and dye-sublimation printing technologies to meet client needs. However, after observing industry trends in profitability, productivity, and customer demands, the company turned to inkjet digital presses.

“Yes. I would choose the Kyocera again ten times over.”

Mike Beatty, Director of Operations for Graphcom

The Solution

Inkjet production printing technology is known for its instant impact. When it comes to inkjet commercial printing services, Kyocera is the go-to! Graphcom turned to the TASKalfa Pro 15000c to meet their customer demands.

The digital press, provided through MCS, Kyocera’s long-time partner, proved to be a cost-effective solution, offering both speed and quality at a fraction of the running cost of other inkjet systems. Graphcom found that Kyocera’s commercial printing services excelled in high-volume jobs, requiring minimal maintenance while consistently maintaining color quality across different projects.

The results

When working with Kyocera production printing systems, thanks to our decades of expertise, you get an instant bang for your buck.

Within three years, Graphcom shifted nearly 60% of its high-speed printing volume to these presses, driving efficiency and profitability.

By switching toner for inkjet, Graphcom has seen significant operational improvements. The presses run 50% faster than their previous toner machines, allowing the company to handle larger jobs with ease—averaging 1.3 million pages per month on just one machine. Additionally, they reduced their digital printing costs by more than two-thirds, lowering the cost per letter image from three cents with toner to just over a penny with inkjet.

As their business continues to grow, Graphcom recently expanded into a new facility to accommodate more presses, and they are already planning future investments in Kyocera’s inkjet production printing technology to keep up with client demand.
