Established in 2001, Jimmy Offset is a partnership firm and is run by three partners – Hitesh Bhai Kishan Kant Purohit, Hakku Bhai Sochitra and Pran Bhai Kalaria.

Hitesh, one of the partners, said, “Komori Enthrone is a very compact machine and has the double diameter cylinder option which serves our purposes. We entertain short run print jobs and it is an ideal machine for us because we can print up to around eight jobs an hour. Prior to installation, we spoke to many Enthrone customers who have done around 100 jobs and more in a day.” 

The commercial printing facility outsources its pre and post press requirements and Komori Enthrone is its first brand new equipment.

Purohit added that, "In future we will go for a five-colour with online coating printing press to cater to the packaging market."

Sangam Khanna, director, Insight Communications, said, “Enthrone is becoming very popular as an entry level brand new four-colour offset press in the commercial printing segment. Komori has always been promoting super fast make-ready features on its machines. It is promoting a concept called offset-on-demand with its 20 matching concept, KHS-AI and H-UV innovative curing system. Offset-on-demand promises instant back-to-back printing and drying with least amount of wastage and immediate post-press processing.”

Jimmy Offset operates around 15 hours a day in 800 sqft area with 10 people.
