Oce and Gandi Innovations Announce Sales, Service Agreement in US

At the SGIA show in Minneapolis, Oc?? announced that it will provide exclusive sales and service support in the US for Gandi Innovations' JETi 3300 grand-format printer. Other Gandi printers may be added to the agreement at a later time. “The JETi 3300 complements our existing product line by adding a grand-format size printer for producing oversize, outdoor-durable graphics,” says Joyce Virnich, vice president of marketing for Oc??'s Wide Format Printing Systems Division in North America. “This enables us to offer the broadest product portfolio in the industry”?from low- to high-end, including solvent, UV-curable, and photo-laser technologies, across roll-based, flatbed, and hybrid platforms.” ” The agreement enables Gandi to make the JETi 3300 more widely available. “Oc??'s extensive infrastructure of sales, service, and support will help us take the JETi product line to the next level and enable our future growth,” says Hary Gandy, managing director of Gandy Innvoations. The JETi 3300, introduced at the 2002 SGIA show, is a 10.5-ft wide, solvent-based inkjet printer that can print to a variety of substrates. Oc?? has been selling the printer in the United Kingdom and France for the past year. (Oc??: www.oce.com; Gandi Innovations: www.gandinnovations.com)
