Market changing Oki Pro9541WT wins two awards O
ki's recently launched Pro9541WT five-colour transfer media printer has won two industry awards. The printer received an Office Oscar from OEN Magazine and the Editor's Choice Award from Print IT Reseller, for its innovative features and the value it can add to businesses.
OEN awarded the printer in recognition of the new business opportunities it creates as a fast, cost-effective, on-demand, toner transfer technology and a more eco-friendly alternative to screen printing. The OEN Office Oscars are awarded to companies with new products, services or initiatives that are raising the bar in terms of standards, excellence, quality and value. Print IT Reseller gave the Oki Pro9541WT the coveted Editor's Choice Award based on the printer's contribution to innovation in transfer printing. Launched in September 2019, the versatile Oki Pro9541WT A3+ digital transfer media is the world’s first-ever
five-colour, LED device to deliver 329x483mm digital transfer printing. Generating vibrant CMYK+white colour and sharp graphics on textiles and hard surfaces with no daily maintenance
requirements, the Pro9541WT offers three different application types from one device – digital toner transfer printing, digital screen printing frames and digital smart screen transfer, giving commercial screen printers the flexibility to expand their print capabilities and generate additional revenue streams by offering new services to customers. Christophe Van Gelder, general manager EMEA, toner transfer media and textile printing, Oki Europe, said: "We are delighted that the Pro9541WT has been recognised by two leading industry publications.

well-established name in the packaging market. Working in partnership with Friedheim, Pregis will bring additional bagging and mailing solutions to the UK market. Among the first Sharp machines available through Friedheim will be the SX, a semi-automatic tabletop device that runs bags from 5cm to 28cm wide and from 10cm to 81cm long. Friedheim will also now stock the Sharp MAX20 Automatic machine, which can run bags up to 51cm wide and 101cm long and designed for various infeed and outfeed accessories. Both machine types have an integrated printer with next-bag out technology. With continued growth in B2C e-commerce sales in the UK market, Sharp machines will help solve the problems presented by an increase in short runs and single order items. Existing Sharp users have reported seeing their productivity triple, while the quality of their packaging has also increased. Aside from the mail order and e-commerce market, Sharp has seen heavy interest from T shirt printers running a direct-to-consumer service, whereby they produce and deliver a single printed garment direct to the customer. Next to labour savings and increase of output, DIM-weight savings can be achieved while contributing to a lower CO2 footprint with bags made from recycled content.

P has evaluated and tested the Summa L Series laser cutters with the HP Stitch printer series and has acknowledged that both technologies work seamlessly
together, providing added value to customer workflows. The HP Stitch printer series for dye sublimation printing has the fastest colour match available in the market. To achieve well-finished final products, users can rely on Summa's L Series. The L Series has been developed to cut textile for sportswear, fashion, soft signage and interior
decoration.
HP states that the purpose of the validation with Summa is to enhance the value proposition and competitive advantage of HP
Stitch and Summa. As a result, solutions can be provided for the E2E printing environment beyond the printer. Summa’s CEO, Erwin Vandousselaere, said: “With our L Series and the L3214 in particular, Summa introduced a true productivity game changer to textile cutting. It is not only speed which makes this cutter to stand out, it also maintains the finest accuracy and meets the highest safety standards. In addition, thanks to the 3.2 m (10ft 5in) width, it entails a perfect synergy with large format textile printers, such as the HP Stitch printer series. After all, I believe the validation by HP represents great added value helping customers with their choice of equipment that fits their business needs.”
