Page Tuck, marketing director of The Print Show, says: “We are thrilled to have Ricoh in attendance, an industry leader known not only for the quality and efficiency of its products but also, the extensive support it offers its clients.
“This is exactly the kind of partner we want to work with on a show that is committed to answering the seemingly simple question: ‘How am I going to remain profitable and grow my business?’ Our research has uncovered an increasing appetite for a UK focused show that tackles issues unique to this market. We are looking forward to a successful event.”
Attendees at the show can expect Ricoh to be exhibiting technologies including the Ricoh Pro C9100 series, its collection of durable high volume digital presses, the C7100 series of digital colour cut-sheet presses, and the C5100, which is the first Ricoh digital production printer to feature the enhanced toner transfer technology—allowing for the production of high quality print results on heavily textured stock.
We are excited to be supporting a new trade event centred on the needs of printers across the UK and Ireland”
Ricoh joins other influential print powers such as Manroland Sheetfed, Premier Paper Group and DTP Associates. And with more than six months left to the event it has continued to generate a real buzz in the industry, as organisers have now confirmed it is heading north of 40 signed exhibitor contracts with still another 30 in the final stages of approval and counting.
The Print Show’s organisers say it will focus on the UK print industry, and will work to support businesses by providing a sustainable and solid annual market platform for those involved to showcase their products and innovations.
Stephen Palmer, director, production print, Ricoh UK & managing director of Ricoh Ireland said: “We are excited to be supporting a new trade event centred on the needs of printers across the UK and Ireland. We are continuously bringing new technologies and innovations to the market, as demonstrated in our successful New Dawn event last year.
“At the show, we will highlight their positive impacts on key business areas including quality, productivity, waste and most importantly, the bottom line.”
