Business Description

Electronics For Imaging Inc or EFI was incorporated in Delaware in 1988 and commenced operations in 1989. The Company makes color digital print controllers, super-wide format printers and inks and print management solutions. Its product portfolio includes Fiery digital color print servers, VUTEk super-wide digital inkjet printers, UV and solvent inks, Jetrion industrial inkjet printing systems, Rastek wide-format digital inkjet printers, print production workflow and management information software, and corporate printing solutions. EFI's integrated solutions and award-winning technologies are designed to automate print and business processes, streamline workflow, provide profitable value-added services and produce accurate digital output. Headlined by EFI's flagship Fiery brand, the company's controller technologies transform digital copiers and printers into networked printing devices. Once networked, EFI-powered printers and copiers could be shared across workgroups, departments, the enterprise and the Internet to quickly and economically produce high-quality color and black & white documents. The company's color digital print controllers provide solutions for a range of the printing market—from entry-level desktop printers to production-level digital copiers. EFI's color digital print controller line of products is sold to original equipment manufacturers for sale to customers, and consists of: (i) stand-alone print controllers which are connected to digital copiers and other peripheral devices and (ii) embedded and design-licensed solutions which are used in digital copiers, desktop laser printers and multifunctional devices. EFI's VUTEk super-wide format digital inkjet printers and inks are used by billboard graphics printers, commercial photo labs, large sign shops, graphic screen printers and digital graphics providers to print billboards, building wraps, banners, art exhibits, point of purchase signage and other large displays. The company's Jetrion products specialize in digital printing and provide an array of industrial inkjet systems, custom high-performance integration solutions, and specialty inks to the converting, packaging and direct mail industries. The company also manufactures the inks used in its inkjet printers. The company's customers include domestic and international manufacturers, distributors and sellers of color and black-and-white digital copiers, wide-format printers and desktop color printers. The company's main distribution method for its controller line of products is to sell them to its OEMs such as Canon and Xerox. EFI's OEMs in turn sell these products to OEM-affiliated and independent distributors/dealers/resellers and end-users for use with the OEM's copiers or printers as part of an integrated printing system.
