Why a Short-Run Digital Printing Machine Makes Small-Batch Custom Packaging Profitable

A short-run digital printing machine makes small-batch custom packaging profitable because it removes the two fixed costs that punish short runs — plates and make-ready time — replacing them with a one-minute job changeover and plate-free production at 700–1,500 m/h in multi-pass mode.
