Deliver print-on-demand books and boost your sales

Not just a cost saver but a sales enabler, digital book printing enables your customers to first sell, then print. Printing on demand greatly reduces risk and cuts costs associated with stocking and pulping. Have your customers trial a book without having to guess its success, then ramp up production when demand increases. Digital printing facilitates this so-called ‘book of one’ approach, a more competitive and cost-effective way to produce low volumes of specialty items.

Whatever you print on a Xeikon can be recycled!
