PRINT 01 PREVIEW -- Power of PRINT

Andrew Tribute, international editor for Seybold Publications, agrees that it would be detrimental for printers to rule out the Internet. "Printers need to have a detailed understanding of the use of the Internet for all forms of work. The failure of the dotcoms in print should not be seen as a reason to ignore Internet developments. The future of printing is largely built around communications and the use of remote services accessible via the Internet. This will be in areas like communication with customers, handling receipt of work, delivery of remote proofing and communication with other service suppliers," Tribute says.
