Victorian printer Dinkums Print has installed the Fuji Xerox Versant 180, with owner John Wilson saying it will give the company extra production capacity.
Wilson says, “We added the Versant 180 to the range, and we still have the V80 running. Our volume has increased, so the 180 is going to give us that extra production capacity we need, with extra inline functions. We have had a really good run with the V80 over the past 18 months, and we found the colour quality and performance was good, and consistent.
“With the booklet making capacity of the 180, we can do saddle stitched books cut top and bottom, long edge, with a nice square edge binding, coming out of the machine completed. Previously we were manually cutting them on the guillotine, which took much more time for a lower quality result."

He says, “I bought Dinkums three years ago, after 30 years working for large global corporate companies. I got to the point where I felt I needed to change, and I had wanted to run my own business for a while. I do not have a history in printing, my experience is more about sales and marketing, so the principles are applicable. When I saw Dinkums advertised, it appealed to me as an independent, established business having been started in 1991.”
This is Fuji Xerox’s 650th Versant installation in Australia.
Quentin Sandery, national manager – production solutions business group, Fuji Xerox says, “Since we have launched the Versant range in market, we have seen tremendous uptake in Australia. The ability to get more done with less is the secret behind Versant’s success. The range offers greater efficiency, end to end solutions and the ability to streamline operator workflows to allow business owners to focus on what matters the most – their business.”
