Nice going! Whats that saying? "If I only had a dollar for every-" Kinda a neat way to think about it. But who am I kidding, $1 per print!? We are screen printers and work for $.01 per print! ;)

Pretty sweet though! Did you guys stop the press and celebrate or just keep it running?

Didn't Impressions Mag used to print total impressions per year for high volume shops? I remember seeing 2 or 3 lists, but now that this was brought up I can't think of the last time I saw one.

I sold out first auo, a Gauntlet, to a friend about 8 years ago. It's recently become of drinking age. Still running and making them money every day.

There used to be a list of customers stating how many units they had printed but not by machine. I personally saw a Gauntlet RS eight color in Hondura's with 43,000,000 on it and the damn press was running fine @ 900 pieces per hour.
