Choices in printing
 by: Florie Lyn Masarate

The quality of digital prints is continuously improving with the improvement of technology. With these advancements, it is now much easier for people to get their printing job done. No more qualms on the kind of result that they are getting.

This is maybe the same reason why many businesses are entering the printing industry. Besides, this is the printing age. Everything that can be written can be printed also. Why not make the most of what technology has to offer and choose the kind of printing you want?

For the people who want to get the best possible image at all times, it is important to evaluate what kind of printing process to use that will eventually bring the best results.

Let us take a look at two kinds of printing processes:

Digital Printing. If you want a sample of what digital printing looks like, just take a look at the pieces that you print out from your inkjet printer, at home or in the office. Digital printing uses a series of dots printed on top of the paper that forms the image.

Digital printing is used most often by those who want to print large quantities in little time. But of course, the printed output should adhere to the quality requirements of the people printing them.

Offset Printing. Offset printing is done on large presses that use plates and inks. As the piece is printed on an offset press, the ink blends with the paper and bonds with it.

Because of the plates used and the way the ink is absorbed by the paper, most people think that offset provides richer and fuller color saturation than digital printing.

These two kind of printing processes have their own advantages and disadvantages. Some people may think that offset is better than digital printing or vise versa.

Even though digital printings have improved a lot over the years, most printing experts still prefer offset printing. It seems that the quality inherent in digital printing still have not reached the quality level of offset printing.

It all boils down on the printing needs of the people. It all depends upon how they make use of the process to bring better results for them.

Try to compare the kind of prints made from digital and offset printing. Then decide which type suits you best.

At least you have options to choose from. Better than nothing at all.
