Konica Minolta Team Earns First IDEAlliance Digital Press Certification

The IDEAlliance Digital Press Certification program validates that digital presses can consistently meet the production requirements of IDEAlliance’s GRACoL color reproduction specifications. Other aspects validated in the certification process include uniformity, rub resistance, color gradations, text quality and color registration. Additionally, designated Konica Minolta production print technicians earned G7 Expert status, thereby permitting the bizhub PRESS C8000 to earn Digital Press Certification.

A program that verifies a digital production press’ ability to meet print specifications based on internationally recognized ISO standards, the IDEAlliance Digital Press Certification testing was produced by a team of G7 Experts from two separate divisions of the Konica Minolta Group including Russell Doucette from Konica Minolta Sensing Americas and Jeff Collins from Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A. Dawn Nye, Product Marketing Manager for Production Print at Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., provided leadership and support on the Konica Minolta team.

Due to the Konica Minolta team’s successful efforts, the Customer Engagement Center at the Konica Minolta Headquarters in Ramsey, N.J. has also earned G7 Master Status.
