Wide Format Pavilion Returns to Graph Expo

Wide format digital imaging is evolving at breakneck speed. Manufacturers are offering bigger, better and faster printers at lower prices, while substrate and ink manufacturers are giving us more choices.

You can see the impressive array of printers in the Wide Format Pavilion at Graph Expo, taking place in Chicago, September 9-12 (www.gasc.org). There, you can talk with contemporary artist Jackson Collins about his experience reproducing originals using digital ink-jet imaging.
