IT’S A HELLO FROM ME


Hello readers! I would like to introduce you to the new editorial team on Image Reports. I’m Melanie and I’m the managing editor of the publication, and Ben joins me as the assistant editor. We are your new points of contact for any news and features within Image Reports.


Myself and Ben have been busy behind the scenes for the last month or so curating the latest news and views from across the wide format print industry especially for you. Between us we are looking forward to working on this much-loved title and getting to know the sector on a deeper level.


In our very fi rst issue, which just so happens to be the last issue of 2024, you’ll fi nd an insightful interview with HP’s Oscar Vidal about the launch of the new HP Latex FS50 and FS60 series, plus we fi nd out what happened to SAISAG (you may recall this action group launching this time last year), and fi nally we speak to members of the industry to fi nd out what their predications for 2025 are.


We hope you enjoy reading this issue and fi nd the content engaging and useful. If you’d like to get in touch with either myself or Ben, please feel free to use the contact details to the right.


On a fi nal note, I’d like to pay a personal thank you to Lesley Simpson, who as you will know was the editor of Image Reports for the last 16 years. Lesley’s hard work and dedication to the wide format industry was second to none, and I hope to follow in her footsteps as best I can.


Melanie
