Prism Colour Solutions offers sign makers the chance to up-skill
The geneses for a new business concept can develop from various quarters but in many cases it emanates from somebody’s personal employment circumstances changing.
Such is the case with Dave Rainsford, ex-general manager of Roland DG Ireland, who has recently set up a specialist company called Prism Colour Solutions to offer sign makers specialist and bespoke training courses in software, hardware and colour management such as Signlab, Versaworks Rip training and general digital large-format printing. The new company is based in Naas, Co Kildare and, as Rainsford explained, it is aimed at large-format signage companies that require up skilling or training in many key areas of production.
“Over time I have built up a lot of knowledge and experience within the signage/print industry in everything from plotters, software, Rip’s, to wide-format printing. There are a lot of printers out there with machines, which are maybe two or three years old, with a mix of different Rip’s and software. For whatever reason many individuals probably required a longer period of initial training than they received and as a result they are not getting the maximum production return from their machine or software.”
Prism Colour Solutions has been set up to address these issues because Rainsford firmly believes that there is a lot of knowledge and know-how that printers are not aware of and which, with proper training, would help to give them an edge in today’s market. Initially Rainsford is concentrating on Roland LFP’s but the company’s intension is to broaden out this facility across many other wide format platforms.
