The agreement expands and strengthens the two companies' relationship, establishing a long-term strategic partnership.
Recognised by Xerox as a strategic vendor, Creo will continue to devote resources to the ongoing development of advanced colour server technologies and workflow, and is committed to supporting Xerox customer satisfaction initiatives.
As a result of the new agreements, Creo is supplying Xerox with Spire colour servers that are integrated with the new digital printer from Xerox, the Docucolor iGen3 digital production press.
Offering unmatched print speed, image quality, cost-effectiveness and paper-handling capabilities, the Docucolor iGen3 colour press and the Spire colour server are already installed at customer sites in Europe and North America.
Print jobs produced on the Docucolor iGen3 have also won awards from industry associations.
?The commitment by Xerox to partner with Creo is of critical importance to its ongoing efforts to gain market share among commercial printers, who are a prime target for the Xerox Docucolor iGen3,? said Ron Gilboa, director, CAP Ventures.
?Our research shows that 46% of the print volume for devices such as the Docucolor iGen3, are pages that are transferred from offset presses.
Partnering with Creo has helped Xerox meet the needs of these commercial printers and other print service providers,? he added.
