In our October newsletter, we shared the newest addition to the print production room: our brand new HP DesignJet XL 36" multifunction wide-format printer, capable of doing architectural drawings, posters, banners, fatheads, vinyl, maps, and so much more!

Kash, Flo, & Let's Go - A Spotlight on our print production room
When you come in our front door to our main service counter and adjacent Seema Boutique, or when you come in our side door to our 24-hour business center, drop-off station, and private mailbox hub, you may not realize all of the other behind-the-scenes spaces that make up Island Ship Center.
