manroland Presents ‘Futureproof’ Investments at GRAPH EXPO 2010
A
t GRAPH EXPO 2010, the year’s largest graphic communications exhibi- tion and conference in
North America, manroland (Booth 858) will be featuring all of the latest 2010 technology releases by man- roland, and a key focus topic will be protecting printers’ investment in print equipment. Here they will reveal what every printer needs to know about safe- guarding their biggest investment and how to position their business to be flexible against market changes is on the agenda. Problem solved—with futureproof, only by manroland. When current equipment does not match the changing market needs, then business development can be challenging to your sales team. man- roland has a solution to not only safeguard your investment, but also to grow with the changing market. When making the decision to invest in new equipment, printers always face the ultimate question, “Will this investment continue to grow my busi-
ness for years to come? Am I making the right decision?” Today’s changing marketplace has made this question even more important.
The idea is simple and makes good
sense: A printer now has the option to prepare for selected upgrades and delay added investments like these
until they become necessary due to customer demands. These include cre- ative enhancements and innovative technology, such as overprinting on cold foil (InlineFoiler Prindor), fast- er makeready processes (numerous QuickChange modules), integrated color measurement and control tech-
nology (InLineColorPilot), adding coating options (InLineCoater Smart), sheet inspection (InLineInspector), ejection of startup waste (InLine Sorter), printnet options (PressMan- ager perfect 2.0, Integration Pilot and Integration Pilot Plus, PressManager smart Online), and more.
manroland Users Take in Windy City Strong newspaper element provides valuable backdrop
2010. The meeting took place on Satur- day, October 2. Founded in 2003, the MAN Roland Users Group is open to users of man- roland web offset printing presses in North and South America. Its annual conference provides a way for its users, who are predominantly newspaper pro- fessionals, to network, share opera-

he manroland Users Group (MANRUG) held its annual conference in Chicago in con- junction with GRAPH EXPO
tional experiences and best practices, and meet with vendors. “Due to the economy, the MAN Roland Users Group had not been able to meet in the past couple of years. In order to be functional and provide full value, though, our group really needs to have its members meet and talk face-to- face,” explains Mel Balch, operations director at the Mobile Press-Register and board member of the MAN Roland Users Group. “Holding our annual con- ference at GRAPH EXPO 2010 made
sense for multiple reasons. It’s central- ly located, and a number of user sites are within driving distance of the show. Because manroland is headquartered in the suburbs of Chicago, and a lot of our support vendors will also already be at the show, our members will have quick access to their vendors. Finally, with the launch of the newspaper pavilion this year, GRAPH EXPO has a much stronger newspaper side-it’s become a better show for newspaper profession- als to attend.”
