Epson commits to Click Live Expo 2024

Epson will attend the first ever Click Live Expo to present photographers with a range of technologies and inks designed for fine art, commercial production, direct-to-garment, dye-sublimation, and UV printing. At Epson’s stand, P29, visitors can enjoy a product demonstration and can speak with one of its experts. Tickets to Click Live can be bought online here.

Click Live is a brand-new platform for uniting the photography community through an impressive line-up of technology offerings, photography workshops, keynote speakers, and more. It engages independent photographers and professionals from photo studios, photo labs, and more, early in the wedding season in a central location, making this an optimal space for Epson to show off its innovative and market leading printing solutions.

Phil McMullin, Head of Sales for C&I at Epson UK, comments: “Thanks to developing technologies and the UK’s industrial pursuit to prevent photos from becoming digitally idle, today’s photographer can focus on far more than simply shooting and printing beautiful photographs. The size and scale of printed photographs, colour gamut, richness, production speed, user requirements (from archival to exhibition), and the extension of photos onto wearable and other substrates, are just some of the considerations keeping this industry unique and competitive.

“We’re not attending to Click Live to show photographers what we have, but rather ask what they need, as for years our portfolio of hardware, ink, and media has been designed to fill all scenarios within this exciting industry that we can. Our micro-production range of direct-to-garment (DTG), dye-sublimation, UV, and photo production printers offer professionals a compact solution for diversifying their offering and create new revenue streams, and we’re excited to see photographers engage with these at Click Live.”
