In addition to its own software, pre-press and inkjet products, Fujifilm UK already sells Xerox digital presses, as a result of a long-standing partnership between the two firms.

Mark Stephenson, digital solutions sales manager at Fujifilm UK, said the partnership with Duplo would allow the company to offer integrated digital systems, combining software, print and finishing equipment.

"By forming this new partnership, we can take the best Duplo solutions and combine them with [Xerox] digital presses and our own workflow solutions to provide best-in-class, efficient and cost-effective systems for our customers," he explained.

Peter Jolly, marketing manager at Duplo UK, added: "We are delighted to be partnering with Fujifilm in the UK and look forward to a rewarding professional relationship for both our customers and us.

"The combination of Duplo and Fujifilm solutions will provide printers with complete integrated solutions, and we are looking forward to providing customers with exciting technologies for their businesses."
