The April issue of the country's favourite print media title has the PacPrint Preview, which contains comprehensive highlights from the show, billed by the organiser as a 'must attend' event.
The PacPrint Preview also has a sneak peak at three of the brand new technologies that Australian printers will be able to see – and buy – at the show: the Fujifilm high speed inket web, the first B2 sized HP Indigo, and Screen's new digital label press.
This issue also looks at two print businesses investing in new folding technology and one small printer that has made the move form polyester to metal offset plates.
April has contributions from print sales guru, Dave Fellman, on the pitfalls of jargon; Kellie Northwood who blasts the myth that paper making uses excessive energy; Gareth Ward fresh from the Canon-Océ open week in Germany; and Chris Heric who analyses the fallout from RR Donnelly releasing Google's figures early by mistake.
In addition AP editor Wayne Robinson looks at the top ten winners and losers from the Geon collapse and Brian Moore previews Chinaprint (now the second biggest print show in the world, after drupa) to be held in Beijing mid-May, saying there are many good reasons why printers looking for an edge should pay a visit.
Brian Moore, publisher of Australian Printer says, “The new online version of Australian Printer complements the printed version, and means we can reach more print professionals. The new April issue is jam-packed full of valuable articles, as well as the month’s news.
"Australian Printer has remained the number one print title in Australia for the past 63 years because it has been able to innovate. If any readers have feedback, I would be happy to receive it.”
