If your organization handles high-volume or specialized printing, a digital press can be a game-changer. From marketing materials to internal documents, the right equipment improves efficiency, quality, and turnaround time.

But with so many models available, how do you know which digital press is right for your needs?

Print Quality and Speed

Two of the most important factors are resolution and speed. Look for:

  • High DPI (dots per inch) for sharp, professional-quality prints
  • Fast output speeds to support large batches or quick turnarounds
  • Consistent color calibration across print jobs

Whether you're producing customer-facing materials or internal reports, consistency and clarity matter.

Versatility and Media Compatibility

Modern digital presses can handle more than just standard paper. Consider:

  • Supported media types (coated, uncoated, cardstock, envelopes, labels, etc.)
  • Paper sizes and weights
  • Inline finishing options like folding, binding, or booklet creation

This flexibility lets you do more in-house and reduce outsourcing costs.

Integration With Your Workflow

Your digital press should fit into your existing print environment with ease. Make sure it’s compatible with:

  • Common file formats (PDF, PostScript, etc.)
  • Your document management or job ticketing system
  • Optional software for job tracking or print automation

Reliability and Support

Downtime is costly. That’s why it’s essential to choose equipment backed by dependable service and long-term support. UBT works with trusted manufacturers to ensure you get expert setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting when you need it.
