Media General taps Polkadots for ink optimization

Media General said it reduced expenditures for colored inks by more than 22 percent after deploying Polkadots Software’s Ink-it ink-savings app across 11 of its newspaper print sites.
“We spent $20,000 less than we were planning to spend on one site alone to install this across all 11 sites,” Jim Lillagore, regional production director at MG’s North Carolina Community publishing unit told News & Tech.
Ink-it is installed remotely by Polkadots and runs transparently on the publisher’s Harlequin RIP.
“Within 45 minutes everything was configured and running,” Lillagore said.
News & Tech will have more information about MG’s deployment of Polkadots software in the July issue.
