    While the pandemic unleashed headwinds into the print industry, it also created new opportunity. Research suggests that although industry-wide revenues dropped by 13%, the share of digital jobs grew by 8% vs offset. But many operations are not yet optimised to make efficient use of 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.

    • Cost optimise: Unlock transformational TCO that optimises economics across your entire landscape of jobs to enhance profitability.
    • Right-size: Build flexibility into your equipment footprint for the landscape of job requirements you serve today with freedom to scale for tomorrow.
    • Expand capabilities: Grow your business by offering new value and addressing more customer requirements.
    • Automate: Boost your productivity by streamlining production, eliminating redundant, time-consuming tasks.

    Download the guide to see how these four strategies can help you reevaluate, re-strategise and reconfigure for today’s changing print landscape.
