What is Digital Printing?
Digital printing quickly takes information or images from an electronic file and transfers it onto the desired substrate. This method of printing requires less setup in comparison to more traditional offset printing. Offset is time-consuming, requiring multiple steps to achieve a finished product. Offset requires several steps of preparation to attain the desired results.
Digital printing is a swift one-step option and is less labor-intensive compared to doing everything yourself. We don’t use non-digital in which color strippers must use negatives to separate the colors by hand, which then go on to be burned onto metal plates. All of our in-house solutions are sheet-fed.
