Work Smarter. Make More Money. Learn From Others.

Real printers with years of experience in their fields lead NAQP Special Interest Groups (SIGs). Each of the three SIGs enjoy special sessions at conferences and regular newsletters critical to success in sales and marketing, mailing services and digital imaging. Perhaps the most important benefit of the SIGs is the bringing together of printers across the country to share ideas and build on their successes.

Still not convinced? To request back issues of any one of NAQP's three Special Interest Groups, please send an email specifying with which Interest Group you are interested, your name and address to info@printimage.org.

Digital Imaging Application Network (DIAN)

DIAN is continuing to be a focus point for quick printers. With the latest technology aimed at outputting customer files, DIAN is filling a crucial role for the association. Whether it is dealing with high speed printers, working with an imagesetter or just trying to take a customer file and outputting to a laser printer, DIAN is the Special Interest Group that will give you the information you need.

Each month, the DIAN newsletter devotes space to the newest and latest breakthroughs that will affect quick printers today. DIAN DIRECT covers everything from what's new in hardware and software to what's wrong with a program and how you can fix it. It offers information that can affect computer files output for a press or files going to a copier
