PRINT CHINA is
perceptibly posing

exhibits presenting a select range of ultramodern
digital large-format printers during
PRINT CHINA 2015. Themed on ‘Value

machines and technologies among which
Acuity UV flatbed printer created a room
of special recognition at the company’s
massive stand. FUJIFILM Acuity is

Many talks around the show floors at
PRINT CHINA 2015 were floored on
‘green printing’. In this context, spotlight
fell upon EFI VUTEk 2000 LX Pro, a
fully loaded production-level LED UV
curing hybrid printer, whose true grayscale
technology extends the range of supported
substrates and bottom line of PSPs with an
innovative ink curing technology and this
