Dallas, TX - In the late 1990's the only a few types of paper were available to the digital printing industry. Until that time the color of digital papers was basic white and only a small amount of thicknesses and grade printing papers were available to accommodate the hungry digital presses.
While offset printing continued to produce high quality printed products, it seemed as though digital printing was relegated to warm the bench as the big guys could print on just about any substrate that could pass through it or under it. That was the rap, a technology starved for attention and inspiration. Having such a small arsenal of digital papers to make an impression, coupled with a young technology, digital printing, was still left trying to find a footing in the printing world.
In recent years the challenges and innovations of bringing substrates to the forefront have significantly enabled the ability of digital printing presses to amplify their brilliant colors. This is due not only to the latest innovations in digital printing equipment but by producing substrates that marry well with inkjet spray systems.
In today's digital printing environment the focus is to the marketer and the variety of substrates that can be digitally produced upon. The solution to putting ink to substrate is in the latest digital printing equipment and is based on the digital press and substrate at hand. For instance, roll based devices use a roll stand loaded form the rear and ink is delivered to the substrate much like a web presses and delivered roll to roll. This method enables you to print on a variety of surfaces like digital papers, vinyl, thin plastics and fabrics.
If you can print it on offset presses, you can print it on digital presses and quality is no longer an issue. The delivery of ink in text and four color graphics to digital papers of all varieties are now available. No longer can it be mentioned that digital printing has a short fall due to restrictions of available types of paper required for a particular job. Everything from uncoated stock to two sided coated stock and thicknesses of 80# stock are now common place in digital printing shops across the planet.
Where once it seemed farfetched, innovators and manufacturers of digital printing presses and digital papers have formed alliances to bring about a much more sophisticated product to bear, thereby delivering to the printer and marketers a viable product with brilliant sharp tones and consistent quality of image.
Large corporations such as IBM have broadened their horizons and initiated the production of digital papers that enhance their own digital printing engines. Already paper companies are producing stock that is of high quality and is engineered to conform to Green-e certified renewable energy standards to offer their commitments to a cleaner environment. Setting high standards of excellence is the prime focus to the new age digital papers manufacturer thereby leveraging themselves for future generational products. We wait anxiously and predict rapid increases in advancements to digital papers.
