Harper Flexographic Center Adds Comco Press
For Growing Phoenix Challenge Competition

Charlotte, NC - March 1, 2004 - Brett Fansler, Division Director of Applied Technologies, Central Piedmont Community College’s Southwest Campus, announced the recent installation of an additional Comco flexographic press in their Harper National Flexographic Center.

The Comco press was acquired to accommodate the growing number of students participating in the annual International Phoenix Challenge High School Flexographic Competition, as well as being utilized in the school’s ongoing hands-on study of flexography. The addition now gives the Harper Center a total of four flexographic presses; one MA 830, one MA Scout and two 7" Comco presses.

Fansler expressed appreciation to Harper Corporation of America, Flexographic Technical Association, Mark Andy, Master Graphics and The Phoenix Challenge Foundation for their ongoing support and for their combined efforts in obtaining the Comco press.
