This interview with Herve Milner, President of Tonernews.com, is super interesting, and though now a response to the recently published interview with David Gibbons, it's two sides of the same case. Tonernews has for 20+ years covered the manufacturing and re-manufacturing of toner/ink cartridges and has seen how overproduction and challenging business ethics have created a very unhealthy business environment. In this interview, you will certainly understand why the US ban (UFLPA) has resonated so well among some of the people in this industry segment.

A more than 100 years old company is now the only really serious player left in the world making envelope machines - and on top of that, W+D build inserters.

According to CEO David Spencer, you can optimize your production more with the right data than by buying the optimization software, which sounds right to us. All printers have downtimes - and by analyzing the cause of the downtime, you can develop solutions that teach operators to be more efficient or find out the workflow bottlenecks. All this can be done using SpencerMetrics solutions, and in this interview with founder and CEO David R. Spencer, you get the insights to understand the potential. This is something we will follow up on. Enjoy!

In this INKISH interview, Repp talks about the added value, the business opportunities, and why digital embellishment makes sense when producing in offset. At Innovationdays, the newest 6000 edition with many new options will be shown - and it's great - we saw it at PRINTING United, but this is a Europe-wide premiere!

Constantin Schmedt is the fifth generation of Schmedt. Though neither he nor his brother wanted to take over the company, little brother Constantin took over the management.
