As the life cycle of products gets shorter and shorter, it means that with digital print
you will always have the latest, most up-to-date, accurate and relevant support material
and publications. It allows you to frequently update the content of your printed
material and print small batches of the latest version, avoiding the distribution of
incorrect or out-of-date material.
Examples of applications suited to the just-in-time advantages of digital printing include:
•Manuals •Brochures
• Catalogues • Financial reports
•Presentations • Books
• Conference and trade show material
With digital colour print you will no longer print material just in case you need it, you’ll
print it when you need it, on demand, just in time.
Distribute and print
Traditionally, print buyers would order ample quantities of print to meet all foreseeable
needs, print it in one run, and then ship it to all those locations that required copies of
the publication. This process is time consuming, costly, and prone to delay, as
documents are shipped around the country or around the world.
With digital printing and the power of the internet, documents can be sent
electronically anywhere around the world and printed locally on a digital press at the
point of delivery. An editor can sign-off on a document in Sydney and have it printing
in minutes in Melbourne, London, Paris and New York. This eliminates delays in the
production process, reduces shipping costs, and ensures that up-to-date publications are
in the hands on consumers in a timely manner.
You can even version your documents to tailor them for regional readers
Examples of documents ideally suited to the distribute and print model include:
•Newspapers • Financial reports
•New product brochures • Limited edition books
•Newsletters
No longer do you need to print first and wait for it to be distributed, you can now
distribute your document instantly world-wide and have it printed locally without delay.
