"Today, physical and digital communications need to be relevant, accurate and powerful to be effective and make a positive impact with customers," said Leslie Abi-Karam, executive vice president and president, Pitney Bowes Communications Solutions. "At Graph Expo, we will share insight and solutions that can help printers and mailers integrate their communications to build more valuable relationships with customers and grow their businesses."

For large, enterprise organizations, key communications solutions and services featured will include:

Transforming mail finishing into a highly efficient, continuous workflow, the Mailstream Wrapper Productivity Series utilizes continuous rolls of paper to produce high-quality envelope material. This unique solution allows mailers to cost-effectively produce wrap material that results in a high-quality, finished mailpiece with the look of a traditional business envelope.
• The IntelliJet Printing Systems with enhanced capabilities. Powered by Production *Intelligence software, the systems allow organizations to integrate print and mail to produce high-quality, full-color, relevant transactional statements. The IntelliJet Print Process Manager allows the IntelliJet Printing Systems family to process 100 percent variable data statements at up to 800 feet-per-minute and up to 4-up impressions for increased productivity.
• New Production Intelligence Software Output Management and Automated Document Factory solutions for highly efficient, but complex, customer communications workflows.

For consumers, Volly is a free service that instantly organizes all bills, statements and important household documents in one place. It makes paying bills easy. All documents are stored securely, and instantly retrievable on a computer or any web-enabled device on demand.
• A technology demonstration that shows mailers how they can incorporate scan-to-pay technology in their transactional mail documents to enable consumers to quickly pay bills using their mobile devices by scanning a QR code.
• The FlowMaster RS Flex inserting system with full color envelope printing can help produce higher impact, smarter communications.
• The Reliant Sorting Solution, which features a small footprint, makes in-house sorting possible for more mailers, resulting in lower overall postage costs while maintaining complete document control.

For small and medium printers and mailers, Pitney Bowes will display solutions including:

And, the RISO ComColor Series complements Pitney Bowes's suite of mail management software for a complete "print-to-mail" solution.
• The Connect+ 3000 enables printers to create and print return addresses, logos and custom messages on the outside of an envelope at speeds of more than 18,000 letters per hour, transforming any envelope into a revenue generating vehicle.
• TrackMyMail, a web-based address management system, that helps increase visibility of mail and a package, improve cost management, and is a complete solution for Intelligent Mail tracking and barcode assignment.
