Charles Lissenburg has held senior sales and OEM sales positions
A Professional Print Division has been launched by Konica Minolta, with the aim of replicating the company’s success in the mid-production segment in “industrial” applications including labels and packaging as well as commercial print.
Headed by Charles Lissenburg, who has held senior posts with Nuance Communnications and EFI, the new division has been created to reflect the growing importance of these print sectors to KM as the Japanese company moves increasingly into marketing, software and cross-media services.
Mr Lissenburg commented: ‘There are huge new opportunities within industrial and commercial printing markets which we seek to capitalise on. As we continue to grow our unique approaches into the high-end commercial print and industrial markets, it is key that we provide customers with insight and business tools to enable them to capture new market opportunities. The Professional Print Division aims to expand its digital printing business by leveraging its technologies to meet the need for high-mix, small-quantity variable production and short lead times, and by offering solutions to enhance printing operation efficiency.’
Key KM products supporting this direction are the the AccurioJet KM-1 sheet-fed inkjet printer and the Bizhub Press C71cf on-demand label printer.
