MINNEAPOLIS—January 13, 2015—Imagine! Print Solutions (Imagine!), North America's prominent independent large-format and commercial printing company, announced it has been recognized as a top 20 North American printer by Printing Impressions. The publication released its annual Printing Impressions 400 and ranked Imagine! #19 with $277 million in revenues among 400 printers in the United States and Canada, up 12 spots from #31 in 2013. The Printing Impressions 400, now in its 31st year, provides the industry's most comprehensive ranking of the leading printing companies in North America.
