Digital printing is a new printing method
that directly images electronic files on the printing medium, which is
different from the cumbersome process of traditional offset printing
Features of digital printing
One sheet of printing, no plate making is
required, stand up and so on, instant error correction, variable printing, print
on demand
The difference between digital printing and
traditional offset printing
(1) Convenient and fast:
Digital printing has an absolute advantage
in a small amount of printing and urgent shipments because it saves the
cumbersome processes such as film, imposition and printing. All electronic
documents generated by typesetting, design software and office application
software can be directly output to the digital printing machine.
(2) Flexible and efficient:
The full digitization of digital printing
allows us to provide customers with more flexible printing methods, that is,
printing while changing, printing while changing, 50 today, 100 tomorrow, how
much printing to use, and truly achieve zero inventory. This flexible and fast
printing method enhances the customer's advantage in a competitive environment
where every second counts.
(3) No printing volume required:
Enjoy high-quality prints without
"printing volume", one copy is fine. Digital printing can fully
realize the requirements of starting printing and waiting.
Offset printing also has the following
advantages:
low cost:
Printing with an offset press can reduce
costs and does not require much auxiliary materials.
High printing efficiency
In the pre-press process, the production of
CTP version has high efficiency. At present, most book printing has some
colorful patterns, and usually requires bright colors. Offset printing has
advantages in dot printing, field printing is not inferior, and overprinting is
also accurate. Because it is a small batch printing, time can be guaranteed.
Adopting quick-drying ink for offset printing, adding desiccant to the ink, and
spraying powder after printing can also effectively solve the problem of
staining of printed products and improve printing speed.
The small batch of book printing emphasizes timeliness. If the pre-plate making process is complicated and the
plate making cycle is long, it will inevitably affect the delivery time. The
offset platemaking cycle is short, which is a suitable choice for book printing
with more complicated patterns and timeliness. The mass printing is mostly
offset printing. Therefore, offset printing is a good choice for book printing.
