São Paulo, Brazil - This month Kodak will exhibit at the largest printing event in Latin America, ExpoPrint Brazil. Kodak will occupy Booth #D-21 at ExpoPrint Brazil 2010 which runs June 23-29 at the Transamerica Expo Center in São Paulo, Brazil. The previous ExpoPrint, held in 2006, featured over 300 companies and drew nearly 25,000 visitors interested in viewing the latest printing related equipment, products and services the industry had to offer.

Kodak will showcase numerous innovative solutions and technologies at ExpoPrint under the theme, "É tempo para você E Kodak" ("It's time for you AND Kodak").  Visitors will see demonstrations that illustrate why Kodak is the best partner to help grow your business, including the KODAK PROSPER S5 Imprinting System, KODAK NEXPRESS SE Digital Production Color Presses, KODAK MAGNUS 800 Platesetter, KODAK TRENDSETTER NEWS Platesetter, the KODAK DIGIMASTER EX300 Digital Production System, and KODAK TRILLIAN SP Plates.

Universal offset and digital press connectivity is enabled by KODAK Unified Workflow Solutions, providing integrated production workflow and portal solutions for printing, packaging, publishing, and marketing service providers.  Visitors will see how to increase production efficiency through easy to use and intuitive KODAK PRINERGY Workflow, KODAK COLORFLOW Software with the new KODAK Ink Optimizing Solution, KODAK PREPS Imposition Software, and KODAK INSITE Prepress Portal System.  In addition, Kodak will display several consumer products, the KODAK s1220 Photo Scanning System for digitizing photo prints, and the recently introduced true production scanner designed specifically for small to medium sized businesses, the KODAK i4600 Scanner.

KODAK Packaging Solutions Portfolio
Kodak will be exhibiting its Packaging Solutions Portfolio at the booth, including new applications that will help customers create new revenue streams and reduce production costs while improving profitability and efficiency from design concepts to shelf.

Kodak has recently expanded its family of flexo solutions, introducing KODAK FLEXCEL Direct System and the KODAK FLEXCEL SRX System.  These expansions to its award-winning KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System product line address different needs in the very diverse package printing market. Regardless of the design or line screen, KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic Plates with KODAK DIGICAP NX Screening enable higher print densities, better print contrast, and cleaner tones while improving production efficiencies and reducing costs.

The KODAK APPROVAL NX Digital Color Imaging System provides a robust, proven proofing option for packaging professionals. Optimized for the FLEXCEL NX System, it enables package printers to reduce time to market, save money on flexographic plates, and more accurately meet customer expectations with digital proofs accurately matching color and imaging on press.

Leveraging the power of KODAK Unified Workflow Solutions, which include KODAK PRINERGY POWERPACK Workflow, KODAK INSITE Solutions and KODAK COLORFLOW Software, package printers have a robust, modular and scalable solution that can streamline production while reducing cost and improving efficiency.
