GSA  appointments  prepress 
Perry Tweed has been appointed Western Australia state manager for Graphic Systems Australasia (GSA), the exclusive distributors of Fujifilm products in Australia. Tweed brings to GSA extensive experience in the prepress sector having worked with a number of leading print companies in Australia over the past 18 years. He was previously prepress manager with National Capital Printing in Canberra and Lamb Print in Perth.

Immediately prior to joining GSA, Tweed was operations manager at Zipform, the Perth-based commercial print and mail house operation.

"I’ve always been involved with Fujifilm products, both analogue and digital," says Tweed. "NCP and Lamb Print both used Fujifilm products so I’ve kept up-to-speed on current product developments."

Tweed’s hands-on experience will be invaluable in providing technical knowledge and real-life expertise to prepress operators. His immediate goal at GSA will be to expand the current client base and offer a high level of service to existing customers, keeping them up-to-date with the latest product releases.

"While there have been a number of successful installations in WA, there is certainly potential for more growth with Fujifilm. I think the time is right as well, particularly with new product releases such as the latest upgrades to the Celebrant workflow system and new CTP plate technology."

Tweed will commence his new role at the beginning of July.
