While the pandemic unleashed headwinds into the print industry, it has also created new opportunity.
Research suggests that while industry-wide revenues dropped by 13%, the share of digital jobs grew by 8% versus offset. But many operations are not yet optimised to efficiently turn this flood of diverse, short-run jobs.
Surviving and thriving in this market requires a more strategic approach to capital investments – gaining the ability to serve your traditional markets more efficiently, while unlocking new growth opportunities. Interestingly, while 80% of print services providers don’t currently have inkjet, 26% of them plan to invest in it.
With progressively more technology options available – like production inkjet – combining the right parts and pieces can be somewhat akin to assembling a jigsaw puzzle. For consideration are complementary print technologies – toner, inkjet and offset, colour and mono – each available at multiple levels of image quality and speed. There are varying media compatibilities, as well as a multitude of finishing options. Finally, there’s the ability to streamline file prep, throughput and finishing with integrated workflow automation. Combine the pieces in just the right way and you’ve built a strong foundation for flexibility, growth potential and investment protection.
Better together – an approach that recognises the wide variability within the print industry and responds with a deep portfolio of modular, scalable digital technologies that can combine to deliver on four business-driving strategies.
