INDUSTRY USER GROUPS -- For Users, Not Losers

Several user groups exist in the printing industry, designed to allow users of common equipment or software to network with one another, to receive training, as well as to provide valuable feedback to their vendors.

The Heidelberg Digital Imaging Association (HDIA), for example, is an independent organization of printing, publishing and related graphic arts companies that are currently using Heidelberg technologies. Members represent every corner of the industry, from printers and trade shops to corporate publishers and retailers, service bureaus, and magazine and book publishers.
