Risograph: Redesigned

Hallagan Business Machines is the hub for Risograph supplies and service in the Chicagoland area. HBM first opened as a typewriter shop in 1961, selling everything from Smith-Corona to Royal typewriters. Terry Hallagan believed in a simple idea: if you work with products you trust, and have strong relationships, you are sure to succeed. From the start, Hallagan Business Machines worked with customers ranging from start-up shops to some of Chicago's most respected institutions, and we have earned our reputation for fair, responsive and considerate service. We are nationally recognized and awarded as leaders in our field.Today, in the same location on North Avenue, HBM is run by Terry's ninth daughter, Joan Hallagan. She recognized the rapid pace of change in office technology, as typewriters gave way to computers and printers. Recognizing that change was a necessity, Joan began a partnership with RISO Kagaku Corporation, an innovative printer company. With a similar set of values and well-respected quality, RISO was the top choice for the next phase of HBM. For the past 20 years, HBM and RISO have partnered to offer high-quality printing and office products and excellent customer service throughout Chicagoland.

Hallagan Business Machines

Hallagan Business Machines and the Chicago Design Museum are partnering to host a one night only pop-up gallery entitled Risograph: Redesigned.
For over 20 years, Hallagan Business Machines has been a leading RISO dealer in the Chicagoland area. In our early days, RISO's line of digital duplicators was marketed primarily to schools as an affordable copier option. In recent years this machine has quickly become a favorite of graphic designers, artists, zine publishers, and arts institutions all over the world. Riso's line of duplicators offer creators a cost-effective, eco-friendly and creative alternative to screen printing. 
We have seen first hand the artistic potential of this machine. Join us in celebrating the risograph and the artists who create with it. The evening will include the risograph gallery, light refresments and a demonstration on the basics of the machine.
