Affordably and efficiently producing multi-channel, cross-media campaigns that are creative, engaging, and personalized is a necessity for today's specialty graphics providers.  SGIA Expo attendees will see demonstrations of banner printing with white and clear inks, along with seven-color printing on various substrates of applications in Ricoh's booth, which will be both printed and personalized onsite.

Attendees will experience these latest solutions hands-on:

    --  RICOH Pro L4160 - a wide-format color printer that offers specialty
        printers superior print quality for signs, banners, wraps, and point of
        sale displays in vivid color on a wide range of substrates.  Seven-color
        printing - CMYK, orange, green and white aqueous latex inks - offers an
        increased color gamut, the ability to print on clear and backlit
        substrates, and output that can withstand the elements. Printers can
        respond quickly to rush orders and take on new jobs that they previously
        couldn't with fast printing speeds and no post-drying curing times -
        helping to increase their revenues in the process.
    --  Mimaki JFX200-2513 - a high-performance, entry-level flatbed inkjet
        printer, ideal for those interested in growing or creating a wide-format
        printing practice. The JFX200-2513 provides high-quality color output at
        an affordable price.  The JFX200-2513, capable of handling substrates up
        to 1.97 inches thick and 4.2 x 8.2 feet in size, is designed to address
        a variety of wide-format needs. Mimaki's proprietary print head control
        technology reduces clogging and its energy-saving LED-UV curing unit
        avoids time- and energy-cost sinks, allowing users to print specialty
        jobs with fidelity and efficiency.
    --  RICOH Pro C5110s sets a standard in value, versatility and footprint.
        Multiple technologies that include a unique ac-transfer system and
        elastic fusing belt illustrate outstanding output on a wide variety of
        textured media. Ricoh's expanded media library enables customers to
        easily manage an extensive list of substrates and the key printing
        parameters to optimize the output quality on each substrate, thus
        maximizing productivity and image quality.
