Segawa takes on the position from Tony Romero, who had held both roles since the formation of InfoPrint in June 2007.

Romero is credited with helping InfoPrint gain a strong position in core businesses sectors such as transpromo and continuous forms colour.

Segawa, a Ricoh executive, was instrumental in the creation of InfoPrint and moves into the position in the final year of the joint venture agreement.

Elsewhere, Jeff Paterra, senior vice president and general manager of technology and solutions development at InfoPrint, has joined the board of managers.
