Konica Minolta Business Solutions India marked a strong presence at PAMEX 2026, held from 27th to 30th January 2026 at Hall 1, Stall M1 & M12, with the unveiling of the AccurioPress C12010S, its latest high-speed production press designed for high-volume, application-driven digital printing environments.
Aligned with the theme “Feel the Potential,” Konica Minolta’s presence at PAMEX 2026 focused on helping print businesses unlock new growth opportunities through an integrated, end-to-end portfolio of products and solutions. The showcase was designed to demonstrate how customers can expand application capabilities, improve operational efficiency, and drive sustainable profitability by seamlessly combining production presses, industrial print systems, workflow automation, colour management, and digital workplace solutions. Visitors to the booth experienced how Konica Minolta enables them to move beyond traditional print, simplify complexity, and confidently scale their businesses with future-ready technologies.
The AccurioPress C12010S series emerged as the centerpiece of the showcase, drawing significant attention from commercial printers, CRDs, and enterprise print buyers. Engineered for demanding production requirements, the system delivers speeds of up to 120 A4 pages per minute while supporting five-colour printing with white toner, enabling value-added applications across coloured, textured, synthetic, and specialty substrates. With media handling from 52 to 450 gsm, long-sheet support up to 1,300 mm, and a peak monthly volume of 2.2 million A4 images, the C12010S series addresses the growing need for high-mix, short-run, and premium print production.
Advanced automation features such as Intelligent Media SensorsIQ-601 Intelligent Quality Optimizer, and AI-based Auto Inspection ensure consistent colour accuracy, precise registration, and reduced operator intervention. The use of Simitri V toner technology further enhances output quality while lowering fusing temperatures, contributing to energy efficiency and sustainable production.
Commenting on the response at the show, Mr. Katsuhisa Asari, Managing Director, Konica Minolta Business Solutions India, said, “PAMEX 2026 reinforced the shift we are witnessing in India’s print industry toward automation-led, high-value digital production. The AccurioPress C12010S series reflects our focus on enabling print businesses to handle complexity with confidence, whether it is specialty applications, faster turnarounds, or consistent quality at scale. Our goal remains to support sustainable growth by aligning technology with real operational needs.”
Alongside the C12010S series, Konica Minolta demonstrated a comprehensive production lineup including the AccurioPress C14010S, AccurioPress C7100 ENHANCED, AccurioPress C4080, AccurioPrint C4065, AccurioPress 7120, and AccurioPrint 2100, offering scalable solutions across colour and monochrome production environments. Office production capabilities were showcased through the bizhub C751i and bizhub 950i, highlighting secure, high-speed document workflows for enterprise use cases.
As demand accelerates across industrial, packaging, and specialty print segments, print service providers are increasingly seeking technologies that support shorter runs, faster turnaround times, greater customization, and reduced waste. The industrial print market continues to witness strong growth driven by brand differentiation, on-demand production, and the shift toward digital-first manufacturing. Addressing these evolving requirements, Konica Minolta is strengthening its focus on industrial-grade digital solutions that enable converters and print businesses to capture new revenue streams while maintaining consistency, productivity, and sustainability at scale.
For industrial and packaging applications, the showcase featured the AccurioLabel 230 and AccurioLabel 400, addressing on-demand and mid-volume digital label production with minimal setup and reduced waste. The MGI AccurioShine 3600 with iFoil demonstrated digital spot UV and foiling capabilities, enabling personalized, premium embellishment without conventional tooling constraints.
Reflecting on customer engagement at the event, Mr. Ashok Sethi, Chief Sales Officer, Konica Minolta Business Solutions India, said, “The interactions at PAMEX 2026 clearly indicates that print businesses are evaluating technology not just for capacity, but for long-term resilience. From commercial print to labels and embellishment, our portfolio addresses the evolving demand for speed, flexibility, and sustainable production. The interest around the C12010S series confirms the market’s readiness for advanced, high-performance digital systems.”
Workflow and colour management solutions, including AccurioPro Flux and AccurioPro Color Manager, were demonstrated to highlight centralized job management, device orchestration, and consistent colour reproduction across mixed production environments. The integration of KOMI Doc showcased intelligent document management and workflow automation, extending efficiency beyond print into content and information workflows.
Highlighting Konica Minolta’s first-ever comprehensive representation of its Digital Workplace Solutions portfolio at PAMEX, Mr. Praveen Seth, Head of Digital Workplace Business, Konica Minolta Business Solutions India, said, “For the first time at PAMEX, we showcased how Office Printing, Managed Content Services, and Unified Communication solutions integrate seamlessly with production environments. Print businesses today are also managing documents, data, collaboration, and workflows beyond the shop floor. Our Digital Workplace Solutions, including intelligent document management, secure print, and collaborative technologies, help organizations streamline operations, improve information flow, and build more connected, efficient workplaces.”
