Digital Printing
For short-run jobs this process is ideal. Initial set up is minimal and a job can be completed in a fraction of the time taken with conventional printing. Although traditionally ‘special’ colours are not available, an acceptable spot match can always be made from cyan, magenta, yellow and black (excluding metallic or fluorescent colours).
The benefits of Digital Print:
• Fast turnaround
• Reduced costs for smaller runs
• No set up charges, on demand printing
• Personalised printing
• Ideal for business cards, invites & postcards
Litho Printing
This is the traditional method of printing using oil-based ink. For long-run jobs this process is the most economic. The initial set up is more costly than digital, once printing however, it is relatively cheap to increase the quantity required. A benefit of lithographic printing is the ability to print with ‘special’ colours for example silver. Instead of being restricted to the colour range possible from cyan, magenta, yellow and black a specific ink can be used. Another benefit of lithographic printing is being able to print on textured paper. This is because the ink is applied to the paper by a roller under pressure.
The benefits of Litho Print:
• 4 colour process & spot colour matching
• Economically efficient for larger runs
• In-line sealing
• Best process for large areas of flat tints
• Able to print on textured papers
