Sydney, 5 March 2010

With only 70 days to go, Konica Minolta counts down to IPEX 2010.

From the 18 to 25 May 2010, the company is presenting at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England, its professional printing solutions for central reprographic departments, commercial printers and the graphic arts industry.

“Expect impact” is the slogan of Konica Minolta’s presentation this year with demonstrations showing print professionals how to make an impact by means of comprehensive solutions – in terms of growing business, achieving more flexibility and serving customers better. Visitors can see, touch and experience the Konica Minolta product line – including brand new innovations – as well as live applications in Hall 9, at Stand 9-DE340.

“Our experts at IPEX will show how our technologies and services open up additional business opportunities in the printing and graphic arts sector, showing printing professionals what they can offer their customers in terms of end products, print quality and services.” says David Procter, National Marketing Manager at Konica Minolta Business Solutions Australia.

“We have also secured a number of tickets to the exclusive “Great Aussie BBQ” held at an old English pub during IPEX. These tickets are reserved for Aussie customers who pre-book a demonstration of our new digital press at the Konica Minolta stand.”

Visitors will experience Konica Minolta’s core products and applications for the professional printing environment first-hand at a booth with around 1,250 sq m of floor space. Highlights of the production printing line-up are the bizhub PRO C6501 series for highest colour quality as well as the bizhub PRO 1200 series for superior black and white performance. Both printing systems impress with their fast print speed and their flexibility of media handling and finishing options. Konica Minolta will also demonstrate its workflow solutions, e.g. the Printgroove POD series and the Printgroove Jt series, showing how entire print production processes are managed efficiently – from job submission and shipping to invoice generation.

In cooperation with international processing and finishing companies, Konica Minolta will showcase complete applications, from creative ideas via software processing, printing and finishing to the end product, such as photo books, business reports and mailings. Thus, visitors will not only see, but also touch and feel the impressive quality, speed and flexibility that can be easily achieved in today’s print workflows. Furthermore, brand new innovations for the professional printing world will be presented at the Konica Minolta booth for the first time.
