Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has supplied the University of Leeds with a number of production print solutions, enabling faster set-up time of print jobs (with a 90% time saving) and the management of four print engines through a single, centralised workflow queue. The new production print solution has enabled the university to expand its offering to a broader range of print products, to remain competitive and to facilitate the needs of its internal and external customers.
The University of Leeds chose a range of print solutions from Konica Minolta to address its needs via the CCS RM6174 Framework. These included an AccurioPress C12000 Production Colour Engine (in its first installation in the UK Education Sector), along with an AccurioPress 7100 Production Colour Engine, Konica Minolta’s industry-leading IQ-501 Intelligent Quality Care unit, and two AccurioPress 6120 Mono Production Engines. These are all powered by Konica Minolta’s RIP with the Accurio Flux Ultimate Workflow. Additionally, Konica Minolta also supplied a Duplo iSaddle and a Duplo DC-648i Multi-Finisher (both firsts in the UK Education Sector), a Duplo PFI Blade B2 Digital Die Cutter, a Duplo Perfect Binder, a Matrix MX-530DP Laminator, and an Epson F2100 Direct to Garment Printer.
The University of Leeds had reached the end of its previous production print lease agreement and wanted to explore the options as to what it could offer in respect to its range of services. Although it had generally been happy with its previous print solution, there were areas where improvement was required as Oliver Renshaw, Business Systems Manager at the University of Leeds explained
