Where once, inkjet printers were relegated to household use for low-volume projects and quick, convenient applications, while offset printers ruled the print services and inhouse production sector, where they set the benchmark for high-quality, high volume printing; the future of print is changing.
Production printers, based on cut sheet inkjet technology, have advanced so significantly that they can offer many of the benefits of their high-cost, high-end industrial counterparts. |
On 21-25 November 2022, the second meeting of the Sector Focus Group (SFG)-Business Services and Trade Negotiating Forum was held in Johannesburg.
