His inclusion follows the addition of the industry’s leading digital and offset machinery manufacturers, Heidelberg and Fuji Xerox, who will focus on what can be achieved in the offset and digital press efficiency areas.
Ian Walz - re-sizePrinting Industries National Manager, Commercial Services, Ian Walz, encouraged intending participants to enrol as soon as possible for their local free, three-hour workshop.
“Strong registrations have necessitated finding a new venue for next week’s Sydney workshop on Wednesday 18 April which has been moved from Printing Industries Auburn office to the Banksia Room of Dooleys Lidcombe Catholic Club, 24-26 John Street, Lidcombe,” he said.
“Similarly, the Adelaide venue for the 3 May workshop has been moved from our Wayville office to the Adelaide Pavilion at Veale Gardens, cnr South Terrace & Peacock Road, Adelaide. We are also looking for a larger Melbourne venue and will provide advice when this has been finalised.
