digital printing

Digital printing is an on-demand print process that does not require printing plates. Files are printed directly, allowing for faster setup and shorter lead times compared to litho printing.

With no set-up costs, digital printing is most efficient for short and medium print runs. It is commonly chosen when speed is important, when quantities are lower, or when artwork may need updating between print runs. In many cases, digital vs litho printing comes down to turnaround time, quantity, and flexibility.

Digital printing works well across a wide range of commercial products, including…

These products are commonly used for events and conferences, marketing and promotional campaigns, office stationery, internal communications, and mailouts. Digital printing allows businesses to order only what they need, when they need it.

Our commercial digital printing delivers sharp, professional results suitable for business use. Colour consistency is maintained across short and repeat runs, making digital printing a reliable option for ongoing campaigns and stationery.

Common paper stocks include silk, matt, and uncoated options, with a wide range of paper weights available depending on the product. Finishing options vary by application and may include lamination, folding or creasing, and specialist finishes such as gold and silver foil Scodix and Clear Scodix where appropriate. Product-specific options are always discussed as part of the consultation process.

Digital printing is well suited to personalised and variable data applications. This makes it a practical choice for campaigns and events that require individual names or customised content.

Typical uses include mail-merged envelope printing, individually named tent cards, and name badges featuring personal details or company branding. These applications can be handled efficiently without adding unnecessary complexity to the process.

Our approach to digital print services is consultation-led. We begin by understanding your requirements and advising on whether digital or litho printing is the most suitable option for your job.

We can provide basic file checks upon request and basic pre-press support before moving into digital production and finishing. The process is designed to be clear, efficient, and reliable, giving you confidence that your print will be delivered as expected.

Digital printing offers fast turnaround times, with most products typically produced within 1–2 working days. Turnaround can vary depending on the product and quantity, but digital printing is particularly effective for urgent or last-minute commercial print.

It is best suited to short and medium print runs and is often used when speed is more important than very large volumes. In many cases, next working day or overnight delivery is possible once artwork is approved.

Events and conferences often require print at short notice or with late content changes. Digital printing provides the flexibility needed to meet these demands.

Common event materials include brochures and programmes, tent cards and table signage, name badges, posters, and display materials. Using digital printing helps maintain consistent branding across multiple items while accommodating short runs and quick updates. Firstpointprint works as an experienced event print partner, supporting businesses through tight event deadlines.
