Digital print

Printing in digital technology

Digital print works best for small print runs and in situations where specific personalization is needed. It is always used where the quantities are so small that running an offset machine is not profitable, but a similar quality is expected. Similar effects can be seen in both color and black and white printing. Typical jobs for digital printing include: short series of materials for conferences, business and advertising materials, invitations, business cards, leaflets, reports, and the entire spectrum of print jobs. The possibility of personalizing prints mentioned above, also deserves special mention. In the case of digital printing, the same bookbinding technologies can be used as for other printing technologies.

Benefits of digital print

• Immediate production. Preparation for printing is quick and can also be done immediately after placing an order
• The quality of the final prints is much higher than the known printouts from a typical printer or plotter. It can be compared to offset technology.
• High printing speed (much faster than in standard printers), although slightly lower than in offset technology.
• Possibility of implementation on various raw materials and in a wide range of basis weights
• Lower printing costs for small and very small runs, and a very short time to finish the print.
• Savings due to no need for test prints. The first copy coming off the machine is usually a print run.
• The price of printing only one copy and the price of printing one copy in a large edition are more or less comparable (no large discrepancies as in the case of offset)
• Possibility of any print personalization, e.g. giving each print a specific, individual serial number, individual addressing, etc.
• No downtime between orders and their archiving and resumption are simple, fast and repeatable.
• Possibility of scaling files before printing
• Simple and quick change of toners (there is no need to wash the machine typical for offset due to color changes).
