Using HP’s latest digital print innovations, Pineapple Lane, Book Aid International, and PEN Ukraine worked together to respond quickly to deliver reading materials for children in need. This project has opened the pathway to explore new ways PSPs can work with book publishers, while utilizing the power of digital print to make a positive difference for vulnerable communities. HP is proud to be able to support Precision Proco and its partners on this project,” said Ashley Gordon, Publishing Segment Manger for HP PageWide.
