Different users have different needs when it comes to
printing. There is the budget factor as well which needs to be considered. For
a long time, the debate has prolonged on about superiority of printing modes
amongst offset or digital printing.
One cannot clearly put a finger on yes or no as such
to select amongst both the printing modes. However, a user can choose as per his
requirement. Some major points of difference between the two are as follows:
- Offset Printing – High Initial Set-Up Cost
Digital printing offers cheaper printing services.
This is because in the offset option plates need to be used. Every time there
is a new job a plate has to be specifically set-up. This raises set-up costs as
well as increases the turnaround time.
Offset printing is also suitable when the volume is
high as it has a lower output production rate. This will also mean that as compared
to digital printing there will be a heavy cost irrespective of quantity. This increases
per unit cost in offset printing. Since there is no such set-up cost involved
in case of digital printing, the cost is lower.
- Offset Printing- Economical for High Volume
Digital printing offers advantages in cost in the
shorter run. Since in offset printer per unit cost diminishes with every
incremental unit, the price difference reduces as the volume goes up. Thus, economy
is more in offset option when the volume is higher as compared to digital.
- Offset Printing – Flexibility for Variety of Paper
Usually, offset printing allows flexibility when the
sheet is larger than usual. Offsetprinter offers the use of a wide variety of paper to be used along with
specialised ink, unlike digital printer. However, digital printing offers more
flexibility of printing as per need, and when required, unlike offset which
requires plate setup for each job.
Offsetprinting in Ahmedabad is
still popular and a cheap option chosen by many companies for varied uses,
where printing volumes are huge.
