Print & Production Companies
When the Press Is Running, Your IT Can’t Be Down
Print and production companies operate on deadlines that don’t move. A prepress workstation that crashes during a color proof isn't an inconvenience — it's lost revenue.
The IT Challenges Unique to Print
Print shops aren’t typical offices. Your Macs are running specialized software under sustained heavy loads. Your files are massive. Your color workflows depend on calibrated hardware. Generic IT providers don’t understand this. We do.
Prepress Workstations
We optimize Mac configurations for sustained high-performance workloads: proper RAM allocation, storage management, and macOS tuning so your prepress team isn’t waiting on spinning wheels.
Color Management
Color accuracy is everything. We help configure and maintain color management workflows — calibrating displays, managing ICC profiles, and ensuring consistency from proof to press.
Font Management
Fonts cause massive production issues. We set up centralized font management, resolve conflicts, and configure your environment so every workstation pulls from the same library.
RIP Servers & Press
We configure and maintain network connectivity between your Macs and your RIP hardware (EFI Fiery, Harlequin). We ensure the data path is reliable, fast, and not bottlenecked.
Storage & Large Files
Print files are big. We design shared storage environments (NAS, Mac-based server, cloud) built for large file workflows that are organized, backed up, and fast.
Security & Backup
We configure FileVault encryption, deploy managed antivirus, enforce MFA, and set up automated backups so ransomware never means lost client work or production data.
