In 2013 Image Reports is running a series of articles on companies that have been active in the sector since the early days. Our intention, with the helpful sponsorship of Fujifilm, is to highlight how this vibrant sector has developed over the years and to acknowledge those pioneering companies that have helped make it what it is today – one of the fastest growing, divergent parts of the print industry.
Towards the end of 2012 print companies were asked to nominate themselves – if they felt they deserved to be recognised as a Digital Original – with Image Reports then selecting ten which would have a feature written on their progress since buying their first first wide-format (24in or wider) inkjet printer in 2002 or earlier.
In each issue throughout 2013, Image Reports will focus on one of the ten Digital Originals and provide an account of just what it has taken for that company to get from being an early adopter of wide-format inkjet technology to becoming a successful player in what is now a very different economic, social, technological, business and media landscape.
The ten chosen Digital Originals are:
- RJ Display
- Colour Graphics
- Digital Plus
- Genix
- H+H Reeds Printers
- MicroGraphics Colour Imaging
- The Sign Shop
- PPS
- Service Graphics
- South West Colour Laboratories
