Printing United 2023 · Peter Georges · High Speed Inkjet · Screen USA
Screen has been a partner with Solimar for years – and both Solimar and Screen often emphasize the importance of the relationship. Fast printers require fast processing and optimized data – but listen to Peter Georges from Screen.
Printing United 2023 · Henry Perez · President · Financial Statement Services (FSSI)
Operating a printing facility handling highly personal financial data requires the right people, software, and, broadly speaking, security around your facilities, and that’s exactly the story of FSSI. Financial Statement Service, or FSSI, is a security printer relying on Solimar software hardware from Screen, Canon, and more. In this interview with Henry Perez, we understand the challenges and opportunities of operating a security print facility. It is a fascinating story, and also a very engaging story. It’s nice to get to know Henry Perez better.

Printing United 2023 · Maggie Curry · National Manager · RISO
Our opening question to Maggie Curry is, “How important is it to have partners like Solimar?” – Of course, it’s important. Though the answer isn’t surprising, it’s still something that some PSPs may not prioritize at the same level as investing in hardware. Maggie Curry from RISO gives you great insights in this interview, so listen and enjoy!
Printing United 2023 · Al Kennickell · The Kennickell Group
Passing on your company to the next generation is filled with emotions, but shaping a business with a great understanding of software, hardware, and all the human capital it takes to create an interesting business. And interesting it is, as the business does transactional print but has, after an investment in an MGI 3D JetVarnish, focused on getting more embellishment customers. Files and workflow are essential, and Solimar delivers software to ensure a smooth operation, but listen for yourself to this super nice interview with Al Kennickel.

Mayo Clinic Improves Customer Service and Realizes Thousands in Postal Savings - Webinar
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM PST
Join us as we discuss how intelligent workflow automation continues to grow and benefit the print and mail environment and improve customer service globally for Mayo Clinic.
In addition to replacing their offset content to digital, personalized patient booklets for in-house printing, Mayo Clinic also consolidates and households documents. This reduces the number of individual mail pieces but also summarizes statements and invoices into a single document. These documents are easier for their patients to understand.
For their global customers, such as embassies, Mayo Clinic streamlined the process of getting patient information, statements and invoices into consolidated documents and with bulk shipments. Electronic versions accompany all print.
Both processes have enabled huge postal savings ($100k+) and improved patient and nursing services.
