Print21 magazine's perfect timing for PrintEx 2015

Publication of the industry-leading graphic arts magazine's comprehensive exhibition issue comes at the ideal time for visitors and exhibitors to coordinate their activities at the show.

One week out from doors opening on the largest printing trade show this year, PrintEx 20915 with Visual Impact, industry professionals around the nation opened their mail boxes to discover the latest issue of Print21. Packed with a cornucopia of technological delights and education opportunities to be savoured during the three-day show fro May 13- 15, the magazine is the essentail show guide to the best of PrintEx 2015.

Along with in-depth articles on who is showing what, a pull-out centrefold map provides the perfect guide to making sure you put your time at the show to optimum use. A full programme of the PrintEx Forums along with the National Print Awards with times and locations will ensure you don't miss out.

Encapsulating the contemporary technology theme of end-to-end digital solutions, it was printed by CMYKhub in Melbourne on its HP Indigo 10000, a triumphant display of the powers and quality of digital printing.
