The State of On-demand Printing
What impact will the latest ink-jet presses have on the print-on-demand market? One industry observer offers his views.
Electrophotographic (toner) printing technology’s quality and speed continue to improve, resulting in a reduced price per page, even for longer print runs historically reserved for offset printing. As a result the break-even point for the latest toner devices can reach about 5,000 pages. The quality continues to improve.
