Digital Printing

In today’s rapidly changing market, businesses require flexible, fast, and cost-effective printing solutions. That’s where digital printing, specifically using HP Indigo digital presses, can outshine traditional offset printing methods.

At Bishops Printers, we have two B2 digital printers  capable of producting 2,400 DPI (dots per inch) for superb colour reproduction.

Key advantages of digital printing with our HP Indigo ElectroInk technology

1. Faster turnaround times
   When speed matters, digital printing delivers. HP Indigo presses allow for instant setup without the extra time needed for offset printing's plate production. This means:
   - Shorter lead times for your print jobs
   - Perfect for on-demand printing
   - Easily accommodate last minute design or content changes
   
   
2. Cost-effective for short runs
   One of the biggest drawbacks of offset printing is that it becomes expensive for small print quantities due to the high setup costs. With digital printing:
   - No plates are required, reducing initial setup costs
   - Ideal for short print runs without sacrificing quality
   - You only print what you need, eliminating excess inventory
   
   
3. Unmatched print quality
   HP Indigo presses use liquid ElectroInk technology, which produces far better results than dry ink digital printers and rivals the colour quality of litho printing. Key features include:
   - High resolution up to 2,400 DPI for sharp text and images
   - Smooth color transitions and vibrant, consistent color accuracy
   - Ability to print on a wide variety of substrates, including synthetic materials, colored papers, and more
   
   
4. Personalisation and variable data printing (VDP)
   Digital printing offers the opportunity for variable data printing, enabling you to customise each printed piece without slowing down production:
   - Personalise marketing materials with unique names, addresses, and messages
   - Create targeted campaigns that speak directly to your audience
   - Perfect for direct mail, brochures, promotional materials, and more
   
   
5. Eco-friendly and sustainable
   With digital printing, you're able to minimise waste as you only print the exact quantity you need, making it a more environmentally friendly option. Benefits include:
   - Less paper waste due to on-demand production
   - Energy-efficient operation, reducing your business’s carbon footprint
   
   
6. Consistent quality across jobs
   HP Indigo presses provide unparalleled consistency. Unlike offset, which can experience variations in print quality due to plate wear and ink inconsistencies, digital printing ensures:
   - The first print matches the last with identical quality
   - Easy reprints with precise color matching every time
   - Perfect for brand consistency across marketing collateral
   
   
7. Wide range of materials
   HP Indigo technology offers flexibility in printing on various substrates, including:
   - Specialty papers, labels, and synthetics
   - Coated and uncoated stocks
   - Unique finishes such as gloss, matt, or textured papers
   This versatility allows you to create distinctive, high-end products that stand out from the competition.
