IKON Achieves Color Placement Milestone with Konica Minolta
MALVERN,
Pa. — May 2006 — IKON Office Solutions , the world’s largest
independent channel for document management systems and services, today
announced it has received a “Highly Valued Partner” award from Konica
Minolta for achieving a record number of placements for the IKON
CPP(TM) 500, IKON’s award-winning color solution for commercial,
graphic arts and corporate print environments. The IKON CPP 500 was a
joint effort with Konica Minolta, building on the success of the
co-branded IKON CPP 8050, and received the Better Buys for Business
2005 Editors’ Choice Award.”IKON is a trusted partner and our largest
independent channel for high-speed, high-quality color solutions for
commercial, graphic arts and corporate print environments,” said Akio
Kitani, President of Konica Minolta Business Technologies, Inc. “IKON’s
aggressive placement of products such as the IKON CPP 500, coupled with
its unparalleled service expertise, has enabled us to meet our mutual
goal of putting affordable color at customers’ fingertips while
expanding the market reach of our products through IKON.”
The IKON
CPP 500 is the latest in a series of successful IKON private-label
color products and systems. In 2004, IKON partnered with Konica Minolta
and EFI to launch the IKON CPP 8050 – a 50 page per minute color system
– in months becoming Konica Minolta’s largest independent channel for
that technology. In 2005, IKON launched the IKON CPP 500, the successor
to the IKON CPP 8050, and the IKON BusinessPro(TM) 500c, a color system
designed to meet the demands of the office environment. These
successful products were complemented by the 2005 introduction of the
IKON PrintCenterPro(TM) 1050, a 105 page per minute copy, print and
image system that received Buyers Laboratory Inc.’s Pick of the Year
award for Outstanding Segment Six Multifunctional Imaging Systems.
