At Lyon Eurexpo, from February 3 to 6, 2026, C!Print will serve as a full-scale demonstration ground for manufacturers' large-format and label strategies. Konica Minolta, the show's official sponsor, is announcing an immersive display based on graphic design, workflow automation and self-adhesive label printing.
A stand designed like a museum boutique
The 154 m stand 2 will be laid out like a museum boutique inspired by modern art. Visitors will circulate between different application zones dedicated to workflow software, digital presses and finishing and personalization solutions. Each area of the stand will feature finished applications, with the aim of enabling printers and converters to quickly identify the configurations best suited to their volumes and technical constraints.
High chromaticity and digital finishing with Konica Minolta
In the heart of the creative area, Konica Minolta will be showcasing high chromaticity technology with the AccurioPress C84hc. This digital color press, which reaches 80 pages per minute, will be configured with High Chroma fluorescent toners and an in-line lamination module.
The high-chromaticity technology used by the AccurioPress C84hc extends the gamut in light blues, greens, pinks, purples and magentas, according to the manufacturer. The aim is to bring printed renderings closer to RGB files, which are often attenuated by conventional CMYK conversion.
This press is the only high-chromaticity toner system to have obtained FograCert Validation Printing System certification. The manufacturer also points out that all its color production systems currently in the catalog are now certified.
Digital finishing will be presented by the AccurioShine 3600, dedicated to selective varnishes and relief effects. Demonstrations will combine color printing and inline finishing to illustrate higher value-added applications.
Digital automation and self-adhesive labels
Visitors can also discover the IM-104 and IM-105 automation modules, demonstrated on an AccurioPress C12010S press.
These intelligent media sensors continuously measure media characteristics to reduce the need for manual adjustments.
The IM-105 checks paper size and detects cut-off deviations, then automatically adjusts duplex register. The IQ-601 unit takes the measurements needed to create profiles and maintain colorimetric stability during production.
C!Print 2026 will also mark the first public showing of Konica Minolta's toner label press, the AccurioLabel 400, to mark the company's tenth year of continuous presence in the digital self-adhesive label market.
Alongside the AccurioPress C84hc, AccurioLabel 400, AccurioPress C12010S and AccurioShine 3600, Konica Minolta will be presenting the AccurioPress C7100E.
And the entries for the Let's Shine digital ennoblement competition
The Lyon stand will also serve as a showcase for the Let's Shine competition, launched last July by Konica Minolta to promote digital finishing.
The selected works, based on the brand's finishing solutions, will be presented to visitors as case studies.
