It might be difficult to grasp print
industry jargon at times. If you're not a part of this active and ever-changing
industry, you might not always understand the jargon that printers throw around
with abandon. It is their issue, not yours. Printers, above all, are visual
communicators, aren't they? You owe them no business if they can't effectively
explain a basic idea or technology.
Consider "print on demand." It's
so commonly and widely utilised in the business that many marketers overlook
the heart of what it truly signifies and why they should care. When you hear a
printer say he performs print-on-demand (POD), you usually think: I can get
anything produced pretty quickly. With it, gets the services of the print
on demand fulfillment company who are ready to take the orders.
But let’s take a deeper dive on the scenario
Having something printed on demand
necessitates the use of digital printing technology, which consists of presses
that create short runs (low numbers) relatively fast. Although the presses
vary, the majority of printers now provide this technology. The majority print
in full colour, with only a few exceptions printing in spot colours (a
particular PMS color, for example). Paper and other substrates will be
available. There are certain completed size restrictions as well, but when
designing a print-on-demand project, your printer will help you. Apart from
these basic technical issues, marketers should remember the incredible
possibilities to use print-on-demand technology in support of a marketing
campaign as well as other corporate communications.
So, what's the catch?
Print-on-demand projects can be customised.
It is one of the distinguishing features of digital printing technology: the
ability to combine a database with a print project, update the content as well
as the images, and print out a new, personalised piece each time.
