Epson, Insight forge strategic partnership

Insight Print Communications has announced a strategic partnership to drive sales and service support for the Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-21000 printer in India. 

Over the past few years, Insight has consistently strengthened its portfolio through strategic alliances, from partnering with Fujifilm for Graphic Arts Solutions, to introducing Atexco Vegapress for high-speed digital inkjet webpress, and Scodix for advanced digital embellishment. This new alliance with Epson is a significant step in their strategy to offer a comprehensive, future-ready print ecosystem under one roof, empowering Insight’s customers with integrated solutions. 

Ajay Aggarwal, MD & CEO of Insight Print Communications, said, “We are excited to welcome Epson into our growing digital print portfolio. At Insight, our vision is to provide digital, sustainable and complete, end-to-end solutions under one roof, empowering our customers with choices that suit every stage of their growth. The addition of the Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-21000 printer enhances our portfolio with a powerful entry-level solution. It offers a good speed of 100-ppm, print-shop quality, and significantly lower running costs compared to traditional colour laser printers, making it an ideal fit for businesses ready to scale their digital capabilities.”

As part of its larger vision to expand its digital printing portfolio, Insight has built strategic partnerships with multiple technology leaders, including Atexco. These alliances allow Insight to offer a wide range of solutions tailored to different market segments. Atexco’s high-speed inkjet presses are designed for industrial-scale, high-volume applications and have quickly gained strong market share, especially in roll-to-sheet workflows for book publishing. 

With the addition of Epson, Insight now brings sheetfed capabilities into the portfolio, catering to mid-volume print requirements and further enhancing its ability to serve diverse customer needs across the digital print landscape.

Aggarwal added, “Inkjet is gaining a lot of traction in the publishing segment, and short-run printing is becoming more relevant. We are structuring our digital portfolio to meet the varied needs of the market. Epson’s sheetfed inkjet solutions fit well within this strategy. “

Siva Kumar, senior general manager, sales and marketing at Epson, said, "We are delighted to partner with Insight Print Communications to bring the Epson WorkForce Enterprise WF-21000 printer to a wider audience in India. Insight’s deep understanding of the printing industry, combined with their strong customer relationships, makes them an ideal partner for Epson. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to delivering energy-efficient, high-performance printing solutions that empower businesses to scale sustainably and efficiently. We look forward to driving innovation and value together in the evolving digital print landscape."
