Digital printing
What is Digital Printing?
Digital printing is a modern printing technique that produces prints directly from a computer file rather than a slide or a photograph, without going through some intermediate medium such as a film negative, a colour proof or a plate. Its many advantages include faster turnaround and lower production cost so it is frequently used for on-demand or short-run colour printing. Digital printing is particularly cost-effective on short print runs owing to the low set up costs and no minimum volume run. Digital printing produces very high definition images on a wide range of substrates such as plain or photographic paper, film, canvas and plastic.
