Chicago - As part of its ongoing commitment to offer

its new systemservice 36plus offering to the U.S. market at PRINT

systemservice 36plus service package exceeds the industry standard
and enables customers to run new presses under optimized service
conditions with minimized costs."
The concept of systemservice 36plus combines intelligent
support services, an annual Heidelberg inspection including
maintenance and full coverage of all repair services and parts for
36 months. Intelligent support services consist of around-the-clock
expert team support, Web-based Remote Service and access to
Heidelberg's eSelfhelp online help tool. In addition to
maintenance and repair coverage, Heidelberg's annual inspection
includes a detailed summary report on the condition of the

will conduct additional maintenance inspections.
Heidelberg has the largest service organization in the print
media industry with 600 highly skilled service employees and a
