t was in August 2009 at Sign Africa in Johannesburg that we managed the mean feat of seling every machine on their exhibition floor and transporting them directly from Sandton Convention Centre to their new owners’ premises. One of those machines, the GCC K72UV had to wait a while due to the Sytech Supplies technical team not having had training on it themselves yet. The Taiwanese technical team that represented the manufacturer at Sign Africa 2009 stayed on a while longer after the exhibition to train our technicians.

CorelDRAW® Graphics Suite X4 has been one of our best software sellers since late in 2008, and we continue to get enquiries for the product. If you don’t own CorelDraw X4 yet ad you have been pondering whether to but it or not, here’s 10 Reasons why you should to Buy:

Last month Roland Digital Group released a wide format machine that we guess was a good few months in the making and then a number of months in testing as well. The new Soljet III XC-540 MT with metallic ink.
The The fact that the machine was not launched at some big expo also says that the timing was off – whether it was production or testing delays – and the company needed to bring this machine to market quickly.

So I walk into our new premises, and our Technical Assistant Norman is busy with test prints on our GCC Stellarjet 250UV. I go to have closer look and this is what I saw. Complete borderless printing. I mean printing right up to the edge, and no ink sprayed beyond the borders of the media. WOW !!

The idea here is not to make a killing selling the product. We are only too aware not everybody has R3600 lying around. (oh sucks I just revealed the price) What we do know very well is that every business in the signage, graphics and display industry needs well-designed graphics to make a good print job possible. We also know that nobody wants to be saddled with 4 different machines each running its own software.
So what we’re offering is a software application that can be used to design graphics, edit them, resize to your heart’s content and export to any format imaginable. CorelDraw X4 also allows you to send your artwork directly to whatever plotter you have.

With it’s unique ability to print in 6 colours and dedicated white ink, the new Stellarjet 250UV from GCC is the perfect printer for interior and exterior signage, screenprinting, point of purchase displays, vehicle graphics, display graphics, posters, exhibition graphics, backlit displays, rigis boards, construction materials and lots more.

He had a cheque ready to pay for a CNC router and wanted to take it right there and then. Not long after our demo model heat press that was on exhibition was paid for and taken as well.

Eventually this is what happened to every single machine on the Sytech Supplies exhibition stand at Sign Africa. The only machine they had to bring back to Durban was the GCC 250UV digital printer. The reason for that is because it went straight to the exhibition from the boat and nobody locally had been trained on how to use it yet. As soon as training finishes this week, that printer will be shipped to its new owner as well.

The first order of stock has just arrived at the Durban harbour and is being delivered to the premises of Sytech Supplies as you read this newsletter. Among these arrivals is the latest GCC breakthrough in wide format UV digital print technology. The K72UV digital printer.

We just received an email from Chasity Childers over at Crystaltek in Georgia, USA about an amazing new product that is so new, it’s not even on Google blog or news search yet. Serious.
