Following FESPA, Durst P5-350 Will Make its North American Debut at PRINTING United

The global introduction of the P5-350 printer at FESPA - in Munich, Germany (May 2019) – was the proud recipient of the European Digital Press Association (EDP) top award for Flatbed/Hybrid Printer < 250 sqm/h category.

These two hybrid products are incredible innovative additions to a portfolio that already has strength with 512R and 312R roll printers, 1300 Series hybrid, and Rhotex Series printers.”
