The annual Print On Demand Top Sites issue recognizes cutting-edge leaders within the digital print on demand industry in a variety of categories. "IKON is thrilled at the recognition provided by Print on Demand magazine," said Barb Pellow, Senior Vice President of Marketing for IKON. "This success is attributable to our Digital Express offering and our network of 34 digital production hubs, which serve our end-user customers, augment our on-site facilities management services, and act as a back-room operation for our dot.com partners. In addition, IKON is making this powerful solution available as a service to e-enable even the smallest providers of graphic arts services. With the rapid migration to e-procurement by print buyers, IKON is committed to e-enabling the print marketplace and enhancing distribute and print capabilities for graphic arts service providers and print buyers alike." "IKON is a powerhouse in the on demand marketplace," said Noel Jeffrey, Editor of Print On Demand. "IKON's hefty 2.3 billion impressions certainly make it the largest on demand producer in this competition and probably worldwide. With IKON's positioning of Digital Express as an application service provider (ASP) model for the graphic arts marketplace, the company will continue to help drive the overall growth of this dynamic market."
