The move follows the promotion earlier this year of Jeff Jacobson. He was formerly president of global graphic communications operations and became chief operating officer of Xerox’s overall technology business at the beginning of the year.

Stabler’s new remit includes all of Xerox’s production printing portfolio. He has been splitting his time between the United States and Europe but will move permanently to New York State in July.

He said: “I am really excited about the growth possibilities with the whole portfolio of xerographic, inkjet and workflow offerings.”

Stabler held a number of senior UK and European roles at HP prior to joining Xerox as vice president of global sales for production inkjet last summer.

Xerox boosted its inkjet offering with the acquisition of Impika a year ago.

At Ipex, Xerox reseller Xeretec will demonstrate a range of kit at the upcoming Ipex exhibition, including the iGen 150.
