The firm, which recently won the British Association for Print and Communication's (BAPC) Business of the Year Award, has installed a four-colour Hamada landscape press and a second DPM 2508 polyester platesetter from Presstek Europe.
"We decided to invest in a second machine to double the capacity and give us back-up," said managing director Stuart Mason.
Ink Shop specified the Hamada with an online envelope feeder, so that it can produce full-colour envelopes for promotions and direct mail.
The three outlets are planned for Ayr, Paisley and Lanarkshire, which will make a total of nine branches, together with a centralised printing site in Cumbernauld.
