Ralf! Thanks for this great review of Print4All. The number of vendors who came with heavy equipment impressed me, too. And most were willing to do demonstrations for anyone who walked up with a question. The folks from Sakurai seemed to be printing every time I walked by! I was also happy to see good representation from the software sector! It's so hard for software to compete with the heavy equipment, but everyone was ready to do a demo and follow up on specifics. It was great to be at a live event. I poked my head into the packaging halls, and they were bustling! SO many innovative solutions for folding carton, but also the growing area of paper-based bottles!
