Think of this for a second - how many photos are taken every day with all the SmartPhones on the market? Well, we looked it up, and the estimate is more than 3 billion photos every day, and with this vast amount of photos, obviously, there are opportunities. Taopix is one of the leading suppliers of software for photo products, however, as Michael Carey explains, we deliver the software, and customers utilize the software in thousands of ways - and as he says, still an amazing business potential. Taopix is ready to support customers and even offer business services so they can deliver turnkey solutions. With the increased number of high-quality digital printers, the opportunity to turn precious moments into mugs, t-shirts, books, etc., has only begun. Reach out to Michael and Taopix for more information!

When you see printed electronics, it's almost unbelievable, and yet the technology has been around for 30 years. At the IST UV-Days, Philipp Hölzl from Elantas also explains the advantages, shows examples, and gives us an insight into how their ink helps their customers. Printed batteries, solar panels, sensors, and even OLED screens are just some of the opportunities the technology offers. With the conductive inks from Elantas, traditional screen printers can print products that are almost out of this world. This is certainly worth checking out, as this is something many have heard and most likely fewer seen - unbelievably cool!

Phil Gaskin gets into the key features of the XMPie software. They provide powerful, variable data printing and web-to-print software that brings together customer databases and creative content. Working on top of Adobe creative suite, they help printers and businesses leverage their customer data and create personalized omnichannel experiences across print and digital channels.

When looking at the flexo printing space, what is the situation in the European markets? We talk to Phil Baldwin, European Sales Manager and a longtime employee of Mark Andy, who knows the company inside out. Phil has a long history of understanding the printing business and has hands-on experience with it. Label/packaging is a strong market and is doing well. Let's hear what his assumptions are in today's market.

We follow up on Peter Vogt, the CEO & founder of Labelhub. We find out that the cloud-based online platform is tailored specifically for digital label PSPs, helps to increase overall productivity, saves time in the process, and creates more transparency in the value chain. Peter & his colleagues offer their services on a monthly subscription basis. LabelHub is a Danish software company with more than 20 years of experience in the label industry.

Talking to engineers and understanding the technical challenges you must overcome to have a finished product is always interesting. Peter Pötzl is at FEFCO as he will be speaking about controlling heat, steam, and electricity - or, in short, the consumables of a working corrugator. Interesting to learn and also to understand that this is something that many converters can do better to optimize production and the product and optimize energy consumption for the better. Listen and learn!

INKISH hosted for the first time ever our NON-EVENT. The Non-event is celebrating the people that have been in front of the camera, or been supporting INKISH during the past years. This is a new recurring event, and the idea is to give space for the people we have featured to connect in a new way. We invited 150 people, and 32 decided to join us. Our guests came from Japan, Canada, USA, UK, Belgium, Sweden, and Denmark - and we are confident that next year, even more, will come. We asked most of our participants to talk LIVE during the dinner - and here is Peter Ollén from Sweden. Peter Ollén is the editor and CEO of Sign, Print & Pack events in Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Denmark as well as being in charge of online- and offline media throughout the region. Enjoy!

Peter Ollén is the owner and the organizer of the Sign & Print events throughout the Nordic countries, and though the Swedish one is the largest of the four, it's actually the second show taken place post-covid. It's always with anticipations when shows are developed and executed, but CEO Peter Ollén is very satisfied with the exhibitors, the look and feel of the show, and has a good prognosis for the expected number of attendees - but listen to him yourself - and learn more!

I am the editor for printmedianieuws. The future remains online. Our public is growing and also our partners are still with us after this period. So I'm looking forward for the results in this year. I like a little bit to look at video. You inspired me on that. We also develop websites. Because we want to share our publishing knowledge to a wider audience. About 25 percent of our time we spend in developing websites for various markets. I have to cope with a lot of clients who set their steps in the online world and they need the experience of a publisher. After the pandemic we still use online communications a lot. And this tower represents all the online communications for me. Because it is a telecom company. So when I talk to you, I always think: OK, my first meters are over there. My son, who has Down syndrome, couldn't be at his work the whole week because of the influence of older people together. My son Joost was half time with me at the office. And he was making puzzles. Using his iPad. And he was using color books. I don't want to get rid of the stuff yet from my office. Because I'm still afraid that he might have to come back because of some pandemic reason. We analyze that there are losers and there are winners. The perspective I have on the site of the winners is that there are so many challenges in this printing industry. And we write about that of course. You have to see there is luck everywhere. But you have to grab it. And you have not to be afraid to try to do things.

German language - subtitles in English! Editor Jacques Michiels in conversation with Peter Franco Kreutz, project manager for Druckhausnord, part of the Scandinavian Print Group A/S, one of Europe's leading online printers. Open for business 24 hours a day means your operations must be as fluid and efficient as possible. Competitive pricing to serve a B2B and a B2C market means automation, standardization, and efficiency at all levels. Peter says you have to keep on the ball; it's a competitive game. We agree with this statement. (Deutsch) Redakteur Jacques Michiels im Gespräch mit Peter Franco Kreutz, Projektleiter bei Druckhausnord, Teil der skandinavischen Gruppe, einer der führenden Online-Druckereien Europas. Wenn Sie rund um die Uhr für den Geschäftsbetrieb geöffnet sind, müssen Ihre Abläufe so reibungslos und effizient wie möglich sein. Wettbewerbsfähige Preise zur Bedienung eines B2B- und B2C-Marktes bedeuten Automatisierung, Standardisierung und Effizienz auf allen Ebenen. Man muss am Ball bleiben, sagt Peter, es ist ein Pflichtspiel. Wir stimmen dieser Aussage zu.

Heidelbergs Prime Fire 106 is a digital printing machined aimed for the packaging market. With a large format, excellent quality and digital capabilities it not only do short-run packaging, but it also opens up for completely new business opportunities. In this Print Sample TV episode host Pat McGrew show samples from Japanese K.K.Kyoshin Paper & Package who has made a web-to-packaging portal called Hacoplay. Enjoy!

Our beloved host, Pat McGrew, for sure loves dogs, and so do millions of other people. The pet market is one of the fastest-growing markets, and who should have thought that "dogalized" (personalized but with dogs instead!) packaging could be the next big thing - but in this Print Sample TV episode, Pat McGrew will show you. Be surprised!

The Screen L350UV label printer is an amazing piece of hardware, and in this Print Sample TV edition, Pat McGrew shows the samples from the machine. Pat McGrew emphasis that the red colors that apparently are difficult with inkjet stand out brilliantly. Red is dangerous, but with the L350UV, we are unsure whether it's dangerous or just makes a lot of sense! Judge for yourself!

Vpaper is really exciting product from Peleman making double folds on papers in order to get layflat binding. This is a really cool machine and you can meet Peleman at www.argosinspirationdays.com.

I met Peeter Adamson for the first time years ago in the Estonian city Tartu. An old and nice city with a bar in one of the oldest and largest gun-powder storage buildings from ancient times, but of course, this has nothing to do with today's interview :-) Peeter Adamson is the CEO and owner of the printing company Paar and decided to go to the Horizon Finishing First event in Quickborn to check out a new folding machine. Adamson, however, says that he is replacing a twelve years old machine and believe that the challenging time is a great time to invest in new technology. But listen for yourself, and maybe you'll agree with him?

On September 29th, Fujifilm delivered an excellent presentation of their latest products. The second day focused on Fujifilm Jet Press 750s, and about 50-60 people from the UK, Benelux, and Scandinavia showed up. The agenda was to hear, see, and even touch the new Fujifilm Jet Press 750s. INKISH covered the event with numerous interviews you can find on INKISH.TV. On day two, we took the opportunity to look at many aspects of Fujifilm's graphic offerings as well as the Peak Performance Print demonstrations - so enjoy this really great film - filmed and edited by Jan Majnik, INKISH - of course :-)

On September 28th, Fujifilm delivered an excellent presentation of their latest products. About 100+ people from mainly Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, and Portugal met in the Fujifilm demo center located near the airport. The agenda was to hear, see, and even touch the new Fujifilm Jet Press 750s + the Revoria PC1120. INKISH covered the event with numerous interviews that you soon can find on INKISH.TV - so start here with our "postcard" from Day One.

"Project Peacock Print Fair is basically a traveling show-and-tell event where designers, print buyers, and the printing industry can see amazing print samples," and so it was. The very first Project Peacock Print Fair held in NYC March 14th, 2019 was merely great. The printing industry met the designers and print buyers, and cheerful music arose. Tobias Degsell from Combiner and Trish Witkowski from Foldfactory.com did two engaging keynotes, and the exhibitors presented some of the greatest print samples of today's technology. GREAT event!

German Language with English subtitles: CEO and Lawyer Paul Albert Deimel from the German Bundesverband Druck und Medien BVDM gave a presentation about the temperature of the German printing industry. There are fewer companies and fewer employees, and dark clouds are in the sky with the current crisis. Here you can see his presentation.

With digital print and the BoxPlant 2025 vision from BHS comes the necessity for workflow, and BHS need a VERY fast and very scalable workflow solution that does not only handle the print but all the things around how they see the future of packaging. A tiny insight to this is understanding that a simple QR code can have SO many different functions depending on where in the workflow the code appears - and can therefore be both a marketing and messaging driver for the consumer, as well as a tracking and initiator of different processes from file-creation, to planning, to substrates, to print, to corrugating, to converting, to the finished box making, logistics, and shipping. An enormous task that requires software specifically supporting the vision! Patrik Huettig has domain knowledge and understands the entire flow, and is, therefore, in our mind, quite ideal as the team leader bridging all the needs and making it happen! GREAT vision - and we are excited to see everything in action!

That picture shows a nice home where I work right now. The sunlight may be visualizing that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. We're getting through this together. And for me, it was important to stress that has been a long time. But you always should stay positive and optimistic. And I'm working for an organization who provides me the strength and this positive attitude. This is basically the reason why I sent you this picture. I'm a German. So Germans like it in a much structured way. Sometimes upstairs, sometimes downstairs, sometimes on the sofa or a couch. My work situation was completely different. I was traveling about 150 days a year. US, Asia, Africa, Latin America. I was all over the world. It is important to understand that when you work remotely, you easily feel disconnected. My organization, BW Papersystems or the Barry-Wehmiller Group. We have a culture which helps us to stay connected. And I feel that I matter. It talks about the leadership style and that everything what matters is the people within an organization. We have 40 hours a week where we touch the people in our organization as an employer. 40 times more than any church probably. You have a huge impact whether the person is happy or not happy. People are more satisfied and more fulfilled. They go home and they are better family, fathers, mothers, sisters. That has an impact on the family. Bob always says: That is the answer to world peace. This machine is cutting paper and board to sheets. This is one of the larger machines we typically build. Things go well and the team spirit is up. It's a very small machine, very compact, maybe as large as my desk here. Cuts very sensitive materials at a high speed. So, for example, the pharmaceutical leaflets. You see me on this picture. That was one of the few moments where I was in contact with customers. We could show the machine. It was really fun to talk to people.
