That makes the Dallas-based firm an obvious candidate for a digital press, since one of the most fundamental value propositions of such presses is short-run/quick turnaround capabilities. SixB now has those capabilities since it installed an Epson SurePress L 4033AW digital press.

Among its customers is fast-growing craft brewer Deep Ellum in Dallas, TX. Deep Ellum does its share of 12-oz aluminum cans; these arrive pre-printed, so digitally printed labels are not a part of the picture. But Deep Ellum also specializes in filling 22-oz glass bottles with a number of limited-release beers. With such beers, short runs are the order of the day, which makes them especially suitable for digitally printed labels.
