The two DocuColor 6060s were used to produce two different sets of work, highlighting the versatility of the machine to perform short-run colour book publishing tasks as well as variable data printing, among numerous other applications. On one hand, colour covers were printed on one machine to accompany black and white pages being produced on a DocuTech 90, while on the other machine, Fuji Xerox’s award-winning variable data cover for B&T Weekly Magazine was printed.
The DocuProof 1250 was also a major crowd drawer, and comprises of a DocuColor 1250 engine with modifications for greater stock acceptance and a Kodak Polychrome Graphics MatchPrint Professional Server IIx. This new solution offers short-run, accurate and high-quality digital colour proofing.
According to FXA Australia graphic arts industry marketing manager Brett Maishman, the company is extremely happy with the interest generated by the stand at PrintEx03.
“From what we could see, the traffic we experienced made us one of the busiest places at the show across the three days. Leads-wise, the show was phenomenal,” says Maishman.
“This is the only Sydney-based show that I can see that will continue to grow in the immediate future. The ability for visitors to see such a variety of solutions at a show like this is very helpful for the industry,” adds FXA business marketing manager for production systems Michael Stone.
According to Stone, the show has served as the launch pad of a variety of new initiatives for the company, which will include a roadshow across four states later this year to increase awareness of the DocuColor 6060 and DocuProof 1250 printing solutions.
