Connectivity for print shops

Large artwork files and tight turnaround. The work is information, and clients trust you to keep theirs private and to answer when they call.

Internet, wireless and security for print shops

Internet

Customers upload large files and expect proofs quickly.

Wireless

Delivery and installation crews coordinate by mobile.

Security

Customer artwork and payment data need protecting.

What a consultant changes
