The other site is Partner Werbung & Druck in Hamburg, Germany, and httprint is talking to eight other early adopters of the Karat in the US, Germany, Holland and the Far East.
Printanet was launched last year (PrintWeek, 29 June 2001), and was shown for the first time at Chicagos Print 01 show in September.
It includes pricing, ordering, soft and remote proofing, colour management, pre-flight checking and file transfer functions.
