“In 25 years of working with various printing service providers, I have never experienced the ease and efficiency I recently did with Kyocera. Undoubtedly, they are ahead of the game with their new products and software. A huge advantage is in the human touch when it comes to service, and the ability to turn things around quickly – even exceeding expectations. The Kyocera team are friendly and easy to talk to, and really worked together with us on this project. If our requests were out of their standard, Kyocera tried their best to include it within the scope. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”
