Graphic Communications and Specialty Printing," based on
results from a survey conducted by Keypoint Intelligence -
InfoTrends. More than 300 print service providers participated in the survey, which explored PSPs' wide-format investment plans, business priorities, workflow challenges, media/
substrate usage, and application growth. The study offered
these takeaways:
followed by soft signage/textiles, backlit displays, industrial
products, floor graphics, and sports apparel.
