The Survey Says — State of Wide-Format

(See Chart 6.)

Finally, the users who reported that they intend to acquire new wide-format printing equipment indicated just as much interest in finishing equipment like cutters and laminators as they have in new wide-format digital printing equipment.

The chart also indicates that users appear to be more interested in new UV-curable and new solvent ink-jet printers than they are in new aqueous ink-jet printers. This suggests that they plan to do more than proofing with their next generation of equipment.
