New Solution Enables Customized, On Demand Printing 

Ramsey, N.J. – Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (Konica Minolta) today announces that it has helped Penda Corporation reduce reliance on pre-printed forms with the help of a bizhub® 42 monochrome MFP and TypeHaus FormJet® PRO.  By offering customized printing and a range of new finishing capabilities, the TypeHaus solution and new Konica Minolta bizhub MFP have enabled the company to drastically reduce document management processing times for improved productivity. 

Penda Corp., a heavy-gauge thermoforming company and leading manufacturer of truck bedliners, adopted the Konica Minolta and TypeHaus solutions in March 2013 to replace older, inefficient laser printers.  Since implementation, Penda has drastically reduced print job processing time in its communications department, eliminated the need to purchase pre-printed substrates, and added in-house finishing options to its portfolio of capabilities.

“Formerly operating on a print fleet that was comprised of older models, we needed to find a solution that would reduce the excessive amount of time spent on processing paperwork," says Jon Brunt, logistics coordinator, Penda Corp. “Konica Minolta and the TypeHaus FormJet PRO solution have met these objectives and the enhanced functionality and finishing options on our new bizhub devices have given us a range of new opportunities.

With support announced today from Konica Minolta, TypeHaus FormJet PRO is an ideal solution for organizations that rely heavily on pre-printed forms, including industries such as legal, healthcare, manufacturing, logistics and commercial printing. The TypeHaus solution supports printing of modern form backgrounds, barcodes, watermarks, logos, and other proprietary details that would typically only be available on pre-printed forms.

“By partnering with TypeHaus to offer its market-leading solutions on our award-winning line of bizhub MFPs, we are able to better meet the needs of customers across a wide range of industries,” says Kevin Kern, senior vice president, Marketing, Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. “Penda Corp. is a great example of how drastic improvements can be made in document management productivity, and why customers can count on Konica Minolta for the innovative solutions their business demands.”
