ROLL-FED SCALE

Paper by the roll. Volume by the millions.

This is not a broker's website. It is a working production system: massive rolls sheeted inline at the press, two Elk Grove Village facilities totaling 55,000 square feet, and three staffed shifts.

THE HORSEPOWER

Presses that earn their floor space.

Roll-to-sheet offset for cost and color. Digital inkjet for speed, personalization, and short runs. Full finishing and mail behind both.

Experience keeps the work moving

Across pressroom, prepress, bindery, mail, and customer service, long-tenured employees carry knowledge from job to job.

SINCE 1963

Three generations.
Every dollar back into the floor.

The company's history is a sequence of deliberate production bets: from brokerage to web offset, from sheetfed automation to roll-fed inkjet, with finishing and direct mail brought under the same roof.

1963

A print brokerage becomes the starting point.

James A. DeBlasio Sr. and Maria open JD Graphic from an office on Chicago's historic Printer's Row.

1970s–76

Web-offset production moves into Elk Grove Village.

The business makes the leap from broker to manufacturer. In 1976, the company relocates to its current Elk Grove Village home.

By 2012

The first digital press launches a dedicated digital department.

Short-run work joins the established web-offset and sheetfed operation, giving customers a faster path for smaller, more targeted jobs.

By 2019

Sheetfed, web-offset, and digital operate as one mixed fleet.

JD grows into a full-service commercial printer with in-house finishing—the ability to route each job to the process that fits it best.

2019–20

RMGT 920PF-8 + LED-UV + inline roll-to-sheet feeder.

JD replaces an older web press with North America's first RMGT 9 Series configuration of its kind—combining roll economics with eight-color sheetfed quality.

2022

First SCREEN Truepress JET 520HD+ roll-fed inkjet press.

Targeted work begins moving from offset to production inkjet. Direct mail comes in-house, opening variable-data and short-run publishing markets.

2024

A second Truepress JET 520HD+ doubles inkjet capacity.

Jobs that once required seven days can turn in 24 hours. JD reports 110 million mail pieces produced in 2023 and expands further into books and publishing.

PASSING GENERATIONS

Built by one generation. Carried by the next.

It began with relationships, grew into a true production floor, and continues through each generation of the family. Different decades. The same floor, family name, and accountability.

Family-owned · team-built

Long-tenured people. Shared standards.

The family name is on the building. The people who work here built the business.

Many employees have built careers here—learning the presses, protecting the color, solving problems before they reach the customer, and passing that knowledge to the next person.

When your printer needs a printer.

Other commercial print shops send us their overflow — jobs too big, too complex, or too tight on deadline for their own floor. If the professionals trust us with their clients' work, you're in good hands.
