Fujifilm today announces that its latest UV printer, the Acuity LED 1600, will be shown for the first time at a pan-European exhibition at FESPA Digital 2012 (21^st – 24^th February, Barcelona), with the show also marking the commercial availability of the device. Visitors to the Fujifilm stand (K50) will have the opportunity to experience first-hand all of the innovative features of this hybrid roll-fed/flatbed LED UV printer which is built around proprietary Fujifilm technologies.

For the first time at FESPA Digital 2012: euromedia in a new guise

Fujifilm today announces that its euromedia brand has updated its image, and can be seen in its new guise on stand K50 at FESPA Digital 2012 (21^st – 24^th February), in Barcelona. The updated brand image makes the most of the euromedia qualities of innovation, quality and reliability as well as environmental responsibility and transparency, and is now supported by a new ‘Gecko’ mascot, already familiar to many people from Fujifilm’s innovative WonderTack product.

Fujifilm today announces the launch of new additions and revisions to its euromedia portfolio on stand K50 at FESPA Digital 2012 (21^st – 24^th February, Barcelona). Showcasing the company’s new euromedia brand image, the products have been selected to provide customers with a wider choice of media for a variety of applications. With Fujifilm’s emphasis on service and support, the brand is now even more focussed on helping customers to select the correct print media for their end applications.

Fujifilm today announces the launch at FESPA Digital 2012 of XMF ColorPath Sync, a cloud-based colour calibration system that allows printers to set up and manage compliance to printing standards including, for instance, ISO 12647-2. When used with Fujifilm’s “Pro-File” brand of screen and UV inkjet inks, which have been optimised to facilitate cross-process colour control, printers with both screen and wide format equipment have a simple and reliable way of managing compliance to target printing standards.

FUJIFILM Graphic Systems UK today confirms its continued support of the PrintIT! educational initiative. Since PrintIT!’s launch seven years ago, Fujifilm has been firmly behind the programme, which aims to develop young students’ knowledge of print and promote the industry as a career route.
