The department of printing technology, Arasan Ganesan Polytechnic College, Sivakasi organized ‘Printer’s Day’ to pay tribute to Johannes Gutenberg – the father of printing. M Nandakumar, principal, presided over the function where students and staff were present.
Nandakumar said every printing student would feel proud to be a printer since the invention of movable type and the printing press was the invention of the millennium and paved the way for literacy worldwide.
He stated the students should develop their talents and expertise in the area of packaging as it has been growing with huge potential. He said there is a huge demand for printing students and they should possess positive attitudes, and good adaptive and communication skills.
Nandakumar said many foreign companies have recruited their printing students and there is a great demand for print technical persons in the industry. “Nowadays we are training the mechanical and electrical diploma students in printing and they are getting placed in the printing industry. This year 45 students have been placed in Emirates Printing Press, Dubai, Napco National, Saudi Arabia so far.”
