Hello

Does anybody know if there is a national printing exhibition?

I have just started a wedding & event stationery service and although outsourcing the printing to a commercial printer I may wish to invest in a laser printer and some kind of super card/paper trimmer so it would be good to go to a show and see what is available.

Thanks

Not that I'm aware of.

There's something at the NEC in April, although Birmingham seems such a long way from Aboyne

everything is a long long way from Aboyne!! ... I just thought, with commercial printing being big business there would be a show for it....giving that you seem to get exhibitions for just about everything else!

Hi Joanne

The biggest print show in the North of England is on in Harrogate from 21st-23rd April - It is nothing like IPEX at the NEC but worth a look.

I'll be attending - I don't visit every year but it may be worth a trip for you.

It will give you a good spread of laser print manufacturers - Oce, Konica, Ricoh, but no Xerox at the minute.

Later in the year there is a bigger exhibition in London; http://www.totalprintexpo.com/

Hope this helps.

ATB, Craig.

PS. I can recommend the Xerox 7760dn which we have, however you may have a bigger or smaller budget!

Sorry - I was thinking in terms of exhibiting work. Doh!
