The six-strong firm, headed by managing director Rupert Crawshaw, appointed Robert Day & Company on 13 February to handle the process.
Insolvency manager Richard Belagg told printweek.com that the company is thought to have "looked into obtaining further investment but this wasn't successful. The company was insolvent so they were advised to go into administration."
Oxprint had offered litho, digital, design, wide-format and finishing, including bookletmaking, folding, and laminating and encapsulating.
The company's print hall included a Heidelberg Printmaster QM 46, a Purup Eskofot Genesis platesetter with Harlequin RIP, a Heidelberg Polar 66 guillotine, a Roland creaser, folding and wide-format laminating kit as well as a range of Xerox equipment, which was on finance.
According to independent evaluation agent Richard Birch, most of the equipment has now been sold.
Oxprint produced manuals, study packs and conference packs and was formerly a Kall Kwik franchise.
