Ridgefield Park, NJ – February 5, 2002 – Agfa's successful Digital Solutions Road Tour, which began in April last year, is gearing up for another run around the country in 2002. After spending most of 2001 visiting customers to show them Agfa's digital products and services, the Digital Solutions eighteen-wheel semi-tractor trailer is putting things into high gear to do it again. 2002 finds the truck, a mobile showcase of Agfa products and technology, starting its new tour in southern California. It will spend the winter on the West Coast and then head back south and into Texas. United Printing, Inc. (www.unitedprinting.com), a $4 million company with 44 employees, visited the truck last year while it was at a stop in Aberdeen, South Dakota. United is a 36 year-old commercial printer that recently purchased a Galileo Thermal system -- Agfa’s high speed, high quality 8-up thermal platesetting solution -- with the Apogee PrintDrive Output. Five United Printing employees traveled more than 200 miles from their facility in Bismarck, North Dakota to tour the truck and learn more about Agfa's digital solutions. "The truck helped us to make our final decision," said Henry Beckler, United Printing’s Art Director. "The Agfa personnel there helped our staff understand what the value of Agfa’s CTP solutions for our company would be and how Agfa can help us produce better products for our customers," Beckler added. "We had been researching Agfa’s CTP products. When we saw the whole process in operation on the truck, we were comfortable enough that we placed the order shortly thereafter," said Joe Hauer, United Printing's owner. Featured products on the truck include Agfa’s award-winning Apogee workflow software, with workstations utilizing Agfa's PDF tools Apogee Create and Apogee Pilot. In addition, visitors can also learn about the Agfa Sherpa inkjet digital proofing system, as well as Agfa’s advanced CTP technology. "With Agfa’s CTP equipment we are able to do everything faster and by far, better," Beckler said. During the tour, Agfa technical experts are available to demonstrate workflow and proofing solutions and perform press tests and pressroom audits. "The truck is just one of the many ways Agfa seeks to help make our partners more productive and profitable," said Dave Shultz, Agfa’s Product Marketing Manager, CTF. "The truck is another way we help educate our customers about the latest technologies and learn about Agfa's solutions." The truck spent last year traveling all over the country and visiting Agfa customers. The 2001 tour began in Florida and concluded in Arizona, making many stops along the way. Through the end of 2001, the truck had covered nearly 33,000 miles from coast to coast, spending about 8 hours each day at more than 150 customer sites.
