Australian prepress industry veteran Bruce Wright – a pioneer of the transition to Postscript technology – has joined Dainippon Screen as its northern region sales manager. 

Through his own company, Wright Technologies, he developed and marketed page assembly systems and links to connect high-end scanners to desktop publishing systems. One of these, the Wright Jupiter was used extensively in Australia, North America and Europe.

The appointment to Screen Australia comes after more than a decade with Heidelberg, and fills the vacancy following Peter Scott’s elevation to managing director.

Scott says Wright will be a tremendous source of help and advice to customers. “At a time when Screen is launching exciting new digital printing and workflow products at DRUPA, he will find even more avenues to apply his technical knowledge and commercial skills with Screen.”
