The Print Show will host the latest Konica Minolta solutions, focusing on commercial print diversification and automated label workflows
The Konica stand at The Print Show 2026 will feature an expanded portfolio of automation and label production technology following the announcement of the exhibition line up. Visitors to stand P140 will find a focus on practical methods for commercial print businesses to diversify their revenue streams and protect margins.
At the centre of the display will be the AccurioPress C5080 series production platform, which aims to increase throughput and reduce manual touchpoints in commercial print environments. Live workflows will also feature the AccurioPress C14010S operating alongside Colour Logic software, demonstrating the application of white toner, metallic effects and coloured substrates on premium print jobs to target agencies and designers.
To address the increasing demand for short run customised packaging, a complete label production line will be demonstrated on the stand. This setup combines the AccurioLabel platform with dedicated finishing hardware from GM and Morgana. Software integration will be represented through partnership displays with Fiery, highlighting how data driven automation can streamline production and reduce processing errors.
Head of Production and Industrial Print at Konica Minolta Business Solutions UK, Jon Hiscock, said, ‘Commercial printers today are facing market challenges such as margin pressure, shorter run lengths, and increasing demand for customisation and the need for greater automation. Therefore, many commercial printers are looking for practical ways to increase profitability, improve efficiency and expand their service offering.’
The exhibition space has been designed to simulate live production challenges, allowing visiting print providers to assess the operational complexity and return on investment of entering the digital label market.
Hiscock added, ‘Our focus at The Print Show is to demonstrate real opportunities, from automation and workflow optimisation through to premium print applications and label production, that can help businesses grow sustainably and meet these challenges.’
