The company has been supplying ink jet printers to the Chinese region since 1995.

In 2002, Domino’s Asia Pacific headquarters were established in Shanghai, and since then the company has invested in 4,500m² of production facilities.

In June, Domino Printing secured an order from UK-based book publisher Ashford Colour Press for a Domino K630i single-engine duplex ink jet press.
