We expect to gain 55 extra clients. We approached Openshaw to sell because it brought us in line with Xeikons worldwide policy, said Xeikon GB sales director Greg Neesham.

With the loss of the Xeikon business, Openshaws digital print portfolio includes the new Konica Minolta 8050, Ocs CPS 700 and the.factory.
