Richard Court’s Beach Wedding Intec International Sales Manager, Richard Court, marries his bride.
It was on a gloriously sunny and hot Bournemouth beach, on Thursday September 10th, that Richard married his fiancé, Lyndsay. A wedding breakfast followed with dancing into the early hours, at the Sandbanks Boat Club. Mr & Mrs Court jetted off to the Greek Islands to enjoy a flotilla yachting honeymoon. Whilst enjoying their relaxing sail, they were involved in a dramatic boat rescue and also a 170 yacht regatta - of which only 73 vessels finished - the ‘Court’ yacht being one of them.

A NEW LOVED ONE A. L. Sole Funeral Directors
When the Oxfordshire Funeral Director’s printer finally reached the end of its life, the firm decided to favour Intec with their business, once again. Chris Sole and Jackie Watts welcoming their new CS4200 into the family firm
A. L. Sole has been a valued Intec customer for many years and when their existing CP2020 needed to be laid to rest, they were more than happy to continue their Intec experience by re-investing in a new ColorSplash CS4200 – to become yet another beloved member of their team.
Jackie Watts, pictured with proprietor, Chris Sole, particularly likes the improved print quality when printing photographs, the flexibility of the multiple feeder trays and the better duplex unit.
These features have proven particularly suitable for producing the highly professional and well finished Order of Service booklets and printed materials which befit such emotive and sensitive occasions. As well as increased quality with reduced production times, the CS4200 has also delivered higher print volumes - yet with a much more manageable workflow.
“We are delighted to win the new order from A. L. Sole and pleased too, that the cost of ownership is much reduced compared with CP2020 for our valued customer.” Peter Swann UK sales manager

Todd: USA Moisture has an effect on paper, so proper storage of envelopes is key to having successful output. Todd suggests using the silica gel packs which come in most consumables, (such as drums), and putting them inside each box of envelopes and storing them in a climate-controlled place.
