My aim is to transform PrintX into a top tier provider of excellence in the wide format print space, and I’m really looking forward to talking to potential new customers about how we can make life easier and more profitable for them.”
Since getting his feet under the desk, Coniglio has been busy building a team of industry professionals who are experts in their field when it comes to colour, production, workflow and IT to ensure the best quality production experience.
His initial focus for PrintX is to form new partnerships with small to medium businesses that are looking to increase their profitability and reduce the hassle of producing certain products in-house.
