According to Ricoh, they’ll provide a complete support package for Leapfrog 3D printers, and that includes an option to add those 3D printers to an existing Ricoh imaging print service contract.
“The partnership will initially be available to customers in Belgium, Germany, The Netherlands and the UK, with wider availability across Europe during 2015,” says Jacques van Wyk, the COO of Ricoh SA.
The companies say the deal will initially focus on customers in the education sector and expand to include support customers in the engineering and manufacturing sectors. Leapfrog 3D Printers are already entrenched in the educational sector via their 3D print packages and curriculum materials. Ricoh offers tailored print installation, management, training and support contracts, which should play a major role in Leapfrog 3D’s expansion within these areas. read more here
