Free Lance-Star picks QIPC for register, color control

The Free Lance-Star in Fredericksburg, Va., said it would equip its new press with automatic register and cutoff control systems from Q.I. Press Controls.
QIPC will install its mRC registration system on the newspaper’s Goss International Corp. FPS press, which is slated to go into production next year.
The triplewide FPS press is configured with four towers and two folders. Eight cameras on the towers will monitor color register while 18 additional mRC cameras will sit on the folders to control cutoff.
The Free Lance-Star is the third newspaper to buy the mRC system, following The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Transcontinental Inc., which is using it in its soon-to-be-opened Fremont, Calif., facility.
