Allen Press Expands Local Sales Presence

Allen Press, Inc. is pleased to announce that Paula Gibbs has been promoted to Sales Executive. Gibbs joined Allen Press in February 2017 as an Account Manager.

As Sales Executive, Gibbs will lead sales efforts in the eastern Kansas region, including Lawrence, Kansas City, Topeka and Manhattan. Gibbs will work closely with the Allen Press marketing and operations teams with a focus on growing digital printing, direct mail and marketing communications services.

“It’s our goal to be a printing, direct mail and marketing leader in Lawrence and the surrounding areas. Paula is a natural fit to build community relationships and to help local businesses grow,” said Maria Preston-Cargill, Allen Press Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Paula’s experience in multiple areas of the industry and her enthusiasm for printing will serve her and her customers well as she takes on this new role.”

Gibbs’ experience in the print industry includes roles in direct mail, print production, customer service and fulfillment. In each role, she excelled by putting her customers first and thoroughly understanding their printing goals and expectations.

When asked about her enthusiasm for print, Gibbs said, “Printed pieces are things you can hold in your hand and physically pass along to others. Whether it is a magazine or postcard, each piece has a story. That story is an invaluable marketing and communications tool for businesses with a message to share.”

Gibbs especially looks forward to building new relationships in the Lawrence community. “I’m excited to meet new people, shake hands and communicate what Allen Press can do for local businesses,” said Gibbs. “Allen Press has been a successful locally owned company for over 80 years, and I want our community to know that they have a reliable direct mail and printing partner, right here in Lawrence.”

Evolution Achieves High-end, Higher-volume Success with EFI VUTEk LED Hybrid Printer

Electronics For Imaging, Inc. today reported that Northampton, U.K-based graphics production company Evolution has installed an EFI™ VUTEk® GS3250LX Pro LED hybrid roll/flatbed printer. Evolution chose the 3.2-metre wide printer for its speed, quality of build, and low downtime and running costs. Previously, when its superwide-format graphics work volumes became too large, the company often outsourced to other providers. Now, Evolution can produce that work in-house with a printer that is several times faster than its old flatbed printer. Although Evolution’s machine operators are new to using the printer, they were able to get trained quickly, taking very little time to start producing high volumes of work – more than 200 2440mm x 1220mm panels a day for clients.

RRD Extends Existing Stockholder Rights Plan

R. R. Donnelley & Sons Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved an amendment of the Company’s stockholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) to extend the final expiration date under the Rights Plan to August 28, 2021. The Rights Plan had been scheduled to expire on August 28, 2020. The Board approved the one-year extension of the Rights Plan based on its determination that circumstances continue to warrant RRD maintaining the protections afforded by the Rights Plan. The Board noted that, given the Company’s depressed stock price and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business and on financial markets, there is heightened potential for one or more persons or groups to gain undue influence over or control of RRD through open market accumulation or other tactics. The Rights Plan does not prevent any action the Board determines to be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.
