KODAK lands coveted awards for its KODAK PROSPER S5 Imprinting System and KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexograhic System
Harrisburg, PA, May 16 -- CDMS, a longtime KODAK Value Added Reseller (VAR), announces Kodak capped a highly
successful exhibition at Poligrafia by winning two prestigious prizes at the PIF Gold Medal Competition. The
company landed a brace of coveted Gold Medals for its KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System and
KODAK PROSPER S5 Imprinting System. Poligrafia is the largest print trade show in Poland, and was staged in Poznan
at the Poznan International Fair between April 12, 2011 and April 15, 2011.
The PIF Gold Medal Competition is a highly respected industry event that celebrates modern design, innovation and functionality,
qualities which the panel of industry experts saw in the KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System and KODAK PROSPER S5 Imprinting System.
The FLEXCEL NX System is a complete solution for digital platemaking that enables users to truly push the boundaries of flexo
printing. The System enables customers to grow their business through differentiated print quality, reduce costs through production
efficiencies and support sustainability goals through reduced waste. Simply stated, the FLEXCEL NX System enables users to do
more with flexo.
The PROSPER S5 Imprinting Systems, part of the KODAK PROSPER S-Series Imprinting Systems expand the capabilities of web offset
presses by enabling variable printing inline or offline for personalizing applications such as direct mail. This solution offers
the highest quality in the hybrid digital printing product line, with speeds matching those of a web offset press and web finishing
lines while extending the printers' capital investments in output and workflow solutions. For more information on the PROSPER

During the show Swapan Chaudhuri, Managing Director of Kodak Poland, participated in the 'Future of books in a digital world'
conference organized by the Polish Printers Association, the principal graphic arts organization in Poland. Kodak was also involved
in a roundtable discussion, where company representatives covered book printing using inkjet and laser technology.
The Kodak stand proved hugely popular at Poligrafia 2011, with the company presenting a host of its market-leading graphic arts systems
and workflow solutions for a range of markets, such as commercial print, book printing, web offset, newspaper and packaging. There were
demonstrations of the KODAK PROSPER S-Series Imprinting Systems, the KODAK FLEXCEL NX Digital Flexographic System with hybrid option,
KODAK PRINERGY POWERPACK and PRINERGY CONNECT Unified Workflow Systems, KODAK INSITE Prepress Portal and INSITE Storefront Systems.
The company also showcased the KODAK Picture Kiosk, as well as some of its latest consumer products, including cameras, video cameras
and digital picture frames. All items are available through CDMS.
Finally, the new KODAK Document Viewer and Scan and View Software are fully complementary to KODAK Capture Pro Software, which offers
functionality that easily goes beyond ad hoc scanning and can automate metadata capture. Capture Pro Software is designed to work seamlessly
with both SharePoint 2007 and 2010.
Poligrafia 2011 attracted almost 13,000 attendees, drawing in delegates from print service providers, advertising companies, graphic studios,
bookbinding companies, wholesalers, specialist shops, and suppliers of printing accessories and consumables. And more than 400 companies
from 13 countries exhibited their latest offerings. The majority of exhibitors (55%) presented printing machinery and components, a quarter
showcased prepress solutions, with the remaining 20% exhibiting binding and post-press equipment.
KODAK Document Viewer Software and KODAK Scan and View Software will be available beginning in May of 2011. Availability will vary by geographic location.
Swapan Chaudhuri, Managing Director of Kodak Poland, comments: "Poligrafia was a major success for Kodak. Only nine Gold Medals were awarded
at this year's show, so to walk away with two prizes was a special honor and a great endorsement for the company's commitment to research and
development."
"And, of course, it was very important to be at the event so we could meet face to face with our customers, partners and prospects in the region.
The show was an invaluable opportunity for delegates to see firsthand what our solutions can do."
