Connect online orders and production

Some corners of the print industry have been faster than others when it comes to embracing the digital world. Where does your business stand? One step in the right direction is to connect your e-commerce platform and/or online orders with your production capability.

That will enable you to move into a more seamless printing process, saving you valuable time and money. The digital economy is thriving and you should make sure you’re set to take advantage of the opportunities it offers.

Consider existing tools that can help to eliminate wasted materials

Don’t accept mistakes, demand excellence

Mistakes happen, but accepting them makes errors more likely and numerous small errors can quickly become a significant cost. Understanding where the mistakes are happening is critical; you can then figure out how they can be reduced as there are lots of things you can do to ensure the best quality work, every time. For example, printing multiple substrates—both flexible and rigid—with a single
technology will help to ensure color consistency and quality across an entire print campaign. And you could also look at your workflow process: anti-scratch prints don’t need laminating for short-term applications— removing one step of a typical workflow—and instantly dry output would reduce your print production time as it doesn’t need outgassing.

Automate labor-intensive processes and maintenance

Using automated solutions to replace manual processes can save print providers time and money. For example, the routine maintenance of printheads and white ink cartridges can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and impact your overall productivity.

Using an automated solution not only reduces your business’s manual labor hours but prevents more costly delays in the long term—such as waiting for a technical service intervention to replace your printheads.

Teamwork makes the dream work

Staff that are used to doing things a certain way might be resistant to change. Again, this is where good communication is key. If they know why the changes are being made, were involved in the decision-making process, and are subsequently trained in how to make those changes, then they are more likely to transition effectively and embrace these new production efficiencies.
