Graph Expo Review: Digital Printing & Workflow - Inkjet Is the New Heavy Iron
It’s better than tea leaves, but attempting to divine the future of the printing industry by “reading” the GRAPH EXPO 2011 show floor is still an iffy proposition. Yet, some of the signs were too striking to ignore.
Heidelberg, for example, once again had its traditional booth location at the entrance to the hall (alongside Xerox) after taking a one-year hiatus. However, the piece of equipment front and center was an EFI VUTEk GS3200 grand-format UV inkjet printer. That machine was running in conjunction with a Ricoh Pro C901 Graphic Arts Edition color digital press and a Heidelberg Speedmaster SM 74 offset press to demonstrate integrated workflows and color management.
