This involves printing from a digital-based image directly to a variety of media.
In a digital printing process, small-run jobs from a desktop publishing or other sources are printed using a large format printer or high volume laser/inkjet printer. Compared to offset printing, the cost of outputting a page using a digital printing process is slightly higher. However, this cost increment is offset by avoiding the cost in all the technical steps required in making plates used in offset processes. It gives room for short-notice/on-demand printing and modification of the printable image.
