The four vignettes showcase the diversity and relevance of digital print as well as the range of applications Canon technologies can produce from interior décor to corporate identity and promotional print, direct mail and transactional print as well as signage and POS materials.
Recognized as RED HOT Technologies for PRINT 18, the new version of PRISMAprepare document make-ready software and the Canon imagePROGRAF TM-305 MFP T36 system will be shown for the first time publically in booth #2400.
