This week I spent time in Australia training hp resellers and Systems Architects on the in's and out's of the the graphic arts market. I had students from Asia Pacific, including China and Korea. The flight to Australia is 15 hours from LAX and when comming over it takes two days since we pass the international date line. Comming home I actually gain some time, in example I leave this morning at 10:30 am Thursday and return 10:15 am Thursday. I was met with wonderful hospitality and the training was energetic and fullfilling for the students. We had access to the full Designjet line and went through important labs such as file resolution, profile building, and Pantone matching. Thanks again Hani for making my stay pleasant and organizing such an event.
