Flexpress Buys EFI Pro 16h LED Hybrid Wide-Format Printer to Win in DFW’s Growing Graphics Market

Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (Nasdaq:EFII) has announced that Flexpress has purchased an EFI™ Pro 16h LED hybrid flatbed/roll inkjet printer from authorized EFI distributor Konica Minolta® Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. With its new acquisition, the Dallas-based digital printing company can broaden its local and national customer base by offering a much greater range of high-quality signage and graphics work.

“We had wanted a wide-format device for a while, partly to broaden our customer base and the services we offer,” said WP Ward, founder of Flexpress. “We also received feedback from our clients that they had wide-format work and would give to us if we had the right device.”

Speed, high quality, and wide substrate choice
For Ward, the choice of wide-format printer was clear. “The EFI Pro 16h has the size, speed, high-quality and white ink we were looking for,” he said. “It can print on such a wide variety of materials, that really opens up what we can do. We can print on substrates almost 2 inches thick, which is amazing,” he said.

With its newly installed printer, Flexpress is offering many different types of applications on both rigid and flexible media. The printer’s outstanding quality and broad media compatibility has even opened the door to fine art reproductions. “One of the benefits of the Pro16h is that it can run canvas,” said Ward, adding that his company is working with three international artists to produce fine art work on both canvas and on watercolor paper.

In the signage market, the printer gives Flexpress the added ability to capture some of the opportunities that come with being in the rapidly expanding Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) metropolitan area.
