A golden apportunity
Can printers make money out of the iPad? A print student at a recent exhibition asked Fespa’s blogger (http://blog.fespa.com/): “What part of the production chain would it work best in? And how would a printing app look.” The prospect of customers buying print through an iPad app is tantalising and terrifying. And yet apps, smart phones and tablets will change the way printers do business – and it’s up to printers and their suppliers to influence that change or not. Management information system suppliers have experimented with this technology. But, Fespa concludes, “nothing has come along and really made waves.”
