WOW! What Great Color We Are Getting Out Of Our New Konica Minolta Accurio C6085 Digital Press

We ran our first jobs on the new digital press yesterday after they finished the installation and the color and registration is EXCELLENT.  We also have finishing capabilities such as booklet making and stitching.  The thing that we did not have before was the banner capabilities.  I am not talking about banners that you hang with grommets,  but the ability to print much longer sheets of paper and other substrates.

We would love to have you schedule a visit and see for yourself the quality of color.

A reminder that Burns Mailing & Printing offers graphic design, offset printing, digital printing (we now have two digital presses) and direct mail service.  Why run all over town when we can do the entire project from the concept to the mailbox.  Call me, Phyllis Burns, at 865 584-2265 or email me at phyllis@burnsmp.com. We are a 100% women owned and certified by the State of TN as a Women Business Enterprise (WBE).

 

First Hand Look At Puerto Rico

When some folks heard that we were going to Puerto Rico, they were surprised because they thought that the whole island would be bad because of the recent hurricane.  I have included a few pictures to show you that yes, there is still damage to San Juan but not enough to disrupt everyday life.  The people in Puerto Rico are so friendly and very much appreciative of tourist coming back to the island.  We used Ubber a lot and almost every one thanked us for coming.  One driver described the night of the hurricane and how they had to move from room to room because it was so bad.  However, the people of Puerto Rico are resilient and they will continue to live on the island that they love.  We found a restaurant that we liked and we ate there three nights.  We had the same waitress and every time we came she hugged each one of us.  We all loved the people that we came in contact and the friendly welcome that they gave us.

The food was uniquely Puerto Rico style and it was good. I have included a picture of a Burger King with a sign that said “La Casa Del Whopper”.  We thought that was funny but we skipped that restaurant.

If you have considered going to Puerto Rico, I recommend that San Juan is a great place to visit and apparently the cruise folks agree because there were cruise ships docking in Old San Juan. We were proud to see about 30 men from Arizona Power Service on the plane when we were leaving.  They have been working to restore power to the areas that are still affected.  They told us that other power companies were sending workers as well. I hope that our government and our people will help the people of Puerto Rico.  They are our own.
