Management Information Systems — A Hit with Printers

Growing Importance

The growing importance of MIS in digital printing environments was reflected in the two sessions devoted to the subject at the recent On Demand Conference. Also, a dozen or so solutions were demonstrated in the exhibit hall.

In one session, Paul Rothstein, CEO of Next Generation Printing (Nextgen) in Canton, MA, recounted how concern that the shop’s previous MIS package was no longer going to be supported by the vendor led him to seek a new solution. Another reason for making a change was customer interest in online ordering, he noted.
