RICOH is offering businesses the chance to win a RICOH Ri 100 direct-to-garment (DTG) printer package, an entry-level solution for the personalised apparel market. To enter the free competition, businesses should visit www.winwithricoh.com, fill in their details and answer a few simple questions correctly. The RICOH Ri 100 has a small footprint and simple print workflow – it’s as compact and as easy to use as a standard desktop printer – but with lots of creative potential. In just minutes it can print colourful designs, bold slogans and even sharp photographs directly to T-shirts, sweatshirts, shopping bags, cushion covers and more, personalised for every customer. It’s compact and fast enough to offer a portable, reliable solution for events and exhibitions, or as a permanent addition to a retail shop or print business.
Ricoh DTG systems also offer sustainability benefits – thanks to their eco-friendly water-based inks – meeting another requirement of the modern marketplace. The direct-printing method also means no waste transfer materials, which additionally reduces consumables costs. They’ve been engineered by RICOH, a print specialist with decades of manufacturing experience, to provide maximum potential in a small package, giving businesses a fast, straightforward way to start selling wearable personalised products. It’s a fun, creative market that could be potentially lucrative for any print business.
