Press release from the issuing company:
Marquis Book Printing Inc., a division of Lakeside Book Company, has installed an HP PageWide Advantage 2200 Press at its Montmagny, Quebec facility, marking the 100th installation of HP’s Advantage 2200 platform worldwide. Completed in August 2026, the installation expands Marquis’s colour inkjet production capabilities on coated and uncoated papers, enhances inkjet output quality, and adds inline coated book capabilities.
The new press supports Marquis’s shift toward just-in-time production, particularly in Quebec where average print runs are shorter. By printing the right quantity at the right time, Marquis can reduce product obsolescence and excess inventory while advancing its sustainability goals.
Replacing an older inkjet printing solution, the press gives Marquis more capacity, while also expanding the range of work it can produce efficiently on a variety of coated and uncoated paper stock— including high-end four-colour books, yearbooks, cover printing, and specialized educational publications. Digital printing further allows Marquis to support publishers, educational institutions, and other organizations producing targeted content in shorter runs with faster turnarounds and less waste.
“Being the site of HP’s 100th PageWide Advantage 2200 installation is a proud milestone for Marquis, and a reflection of our strong, long-term collaboration with HP,” said David Tessier, vice president of sales at Marquis and general manager of Marquis Graphic Studio & Laurentien. “The press combines high-quality colour printing with the flexibility to produce shorter runs and respond to changing customer demand.”
Barbara McManus, VP and general manager, HP PageWide, said: “Reaching our 100th HP PageWide Advantage 2200 installation with Marquis is a significant milestone, and a reflection of how book manufacturers and commercial printers are embracing digital inkjet to meet changing demand. Lakeside’s continued investment in HP technology demonstrates how digital production can help print businesses combine quality, flexibility and efficiency while building the capacity to support future growth.”
