Digital Printing and Imaging (DPI) Association
The DPI Product of the Year Award identifies the pre-eminent products in the digital graphics field, those that clearly provide new definition of the industry technology. The awards showcase and compare output from similar devices. Entrants must submit a common test print designed by DPI. The prints are reviewed by a panel of judges, each with a background and expertise in digital printing and imaging. The judges look for color appeal, detail and tonality, and the output is also judged on how closely it matches the test print. The Océ LightJet 430 previously won this award in 2001.
