Ramsey, N.J. and Waco, Texas - August 12, 2009 - Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (Konica Minolta), a leading provider of advanced imaging and networking technologies for the desktop to the print shop, in conjunction with its local dealer CTWP, today announced the tremendous success that the Waco Texas Chamber of Commerce has seen with its recent office upgrade to the bizhub® C353 and bizhub C253 color multifunctional products (MFPs - print, copy, fax, and scan all in one system), now being used within their all new, 100 percent green office building.

CTWP, a local Konica Minolta dealer partner, was able to improve on its already successful 30-year relationship with the Waco Chamber of Commerce, with the recent installation of two new bizhub MFPs at the Waco Chamber of Commerce's 100 percent green building. The Greater Waco Chamber is an advocate for green business practices and outstanding efforts to promote environmental standards for living, working and playing. By upgrading to the bizhub office systems, the Chamber has been able to leverage the systems' networking features to make it possible for the whole organization to access the machines.

"We have set the green standard as the first Chamber in the United States to reach for the highest level both for ourselves and our members, and we are thrilled that CTWP and Konica Minolta were able to help us increase our green efforts, as well as save us time and money," said Lesly Rascoe, vice president of communications for the Greater Waco Chamber. "We do business with Chamber members only and have never wavered in our commitment to working with CTWP. They have always provided us with the best Konica Minolta products, technology and service and have allowed us to seamlessly upgrade to the bizhub systems, which is saving us considerable time, money and allowing us to be even more green."

CTWP was recently honored at the 2009 Business Awards Banquet for their long-standing community involvement and commitment to enhancing the economic stability of Greater Waco.
