NAPCO and Ricoh – PRODUCE. Making it Happen: Software and Hardware Working Together!

Now we’re getting to the good stuff.

Your jobs are onboarded (INPUT), estimating and output specifications are under control (MANAGE), and your files are ready for production and output (PREPARE).

Now, everything needs to work together to match your customer’s specifications and expectations. But how?

Print production is so much more than putting marks on paper. It’s about document assembly, file optimization, and smart shop floor management enabling current job output and providing long-term flexibility to support the next generation of output. It’s about enabling continuous feed, cut sheets, labels, lighter and heavier substrates, and robotic insertion, to name a few.

Join us to learn how to build and capitalize on the PRODUCE stage of your print ecosystem.  Hosted by an expert panel featuring Pat McGrew, Managing Director of the McGrew Group; Ryan McAbee, Chief Analyst at Pixel Dot Consulting; and Linnea Wolken, Director, Global Marketing, Alliances & Operations, Ricoh Graphic Communications Group, this webinar covers:

• Learning from real-world customer use cases
• Bridging the gap between traditional hand-pick distribution and modern machine automated distribution
• Providing a system of record for all print related output, archiving assets, and box content
• Centralizing all print operations, providing the critical functions of document management and archiving

Join us for the 5^th installment of this popular webinar series and stay competitive.
