In 1814, the London newspaper "The Times" was, for the first time, printed on a steam-powered press and heralded the arrival of a new era thanks to inventor Friedrich Koenig.
This week in Düsseldorf, Germany, 18 graphic arts vendors announced new products and dropped hints about what they will reveal at drupa 2024, which will take place May 28-June 7.
Order intake at Koenig & Bauer has been boosted by a big banknote press deal with the United States Bureau of Engraving, while the firm has also revealed its likely eight-digit Drupa spend.
