MUTOH AMERICA ANNOUNCES NEW PARTNERSHIP FOR INDOOR APPLICATIONS

Mutoh is excited to announce a new partnership for their Falcon II indoor line of printers. Beginning January 1, 2005, Mutoh will distribute the Falcon II indoor printers exclusively through Imageologists, a leading professional distributor in the professional photographic market for over 20 years.

“We are extremely excited about this new partnership,” stated Mutoh America’s Director of Sales, Randy Rickert. “The vast experience Imageologists has in the photographic industry brings a tremendous wealth of knowledge to our Falcon II indoor customers.”

The Falcon II indoor line that Imageologists is exclusively distributing for Mutoh, offers a wide variety of advanced features, from piezoelectric drop-on-demand Dynamic Variable Dot imaging technology to print speeds of 430 square feet per hour. All Falcon II indoor models can adjust the size of the ink droplets from each of its nozzles, resulting in finer detail, smoother gradients and solid crisp colors that are closer to true continuous-tone imaging. The Falcon II indoor offers a variety of ink color configuration options as well as the choice between pigment and dye inks.

“Imageologists is thrilled to be working with Mutoh America on this venture,” states Ed Edwards, National Sales Manager of Wide Format for Imageologists. “The Falcon II indoor products, in conjunction with our Contex wide format scanners truly complete our large format portfolio.”

Imageologists is a leader in the professional photographic community since 1984 located in Los Angeles, California and are the premier distributor in the United States for Contex wide format scanners since 2000. Imageologists sees a great partnership between the Mutoh wide format commercial printers and the other products that Imageologists distributes.

Mutoh “Wrapped It Up” at the 2005 FastSigns Rally

Mutoh was pleased to be a sponsor and exhibitor at this year’s FastSigns Rally, which was right in their back yard at the Phoenix Civic Plaza. The Rally on January 7th welcomed over 500 attendees from across the United States. The Rally provided a great opportunity for Mutoh to meet face-to-face with the owners of the FastSigns shops. Mutoh featured the Falcon II Outdoor Heavy Duty, the Falcon Outdoor Junior and the Ultima cutter.

The vehicle wraps started with a van and ended with a pick-up...

Mutoh produced high-quality, vibrant images for the FastSigns vehicle wrap demonstrations. The wraps were printed on the Falcon II Outdoor Heavy Duty printer using the environmentally friendly Eco-Solvent Plus inks on 3M IJ180-C, a high performance cast vinyl for vehicle wraps. The 3M certified installer did a fantastic job on the installation. Mutoh will be proud when they see the FastSigns van making deliveries and providing installations throughout the Phoenix area.

Reseller Spotlight

Castek Resources, Inc.

As an experienced reseller, Castek Resources began carrying the Mutoh Eco-Solvent Plus line of Falcon Outdoor printers in 2004. However, before becoming an official Mutoh reseller, Paul Wagner and the team at Castek seriously evaluated many different manufacturers. “After researching the vendors in this market,” states Paul Wagner, Principal Owner of Castek Resources, Inc., “we really liked the breadth of the Mutoh product line. It is the most comprehensive solvent and Eco-Solvent Plus line of printers available. Ranging from the large, industrial Toucan to the smaller Falcon Outdoor Junior, Mutoh offers a printer to meet the production needs of all sign shops regardless of their size.” More >>

Customer Spotlight

Auburn Sign Company

The decision to invest in a large format, digital printer did not happen overnight for Sal Orso and the team at Auburn Sign Company, a custom sign shop in Auburn, Washington. “We talked about purchasing a large format printer for 5 years prior to making the investment,” explains Orso, Vice President and Production Manager of Auburn Sign Company. At the strong recommendation of a trusted reseller, Orso purchased the Falcon II Outdoor. “We looked at other printers,” Orso shares, “but the Falcon II Outdoor was the perfect match for our production needs. Now that we have it, I cannot imagine what we would do without it.”. More >>
