Color It Right
Overview
Today's advancements in color printing, such as digital lithography, have revolutionized the industry.
The Evolution of Color Printing
Artists have always been masters of color, utilizing it in countless ways. Colors we perceive are due to light waves that objects absorb or reflect. Rainbows, for instance, are formed when white light splits through moisture in the air.
The 19th century marked a turning point for color illustration. Initially, colored plates in books were manually painted by artists using age-old methods from the Renaissance. As the century progressed, innovations like the steam-driven printing press and photographic reproduction techniques moved printing from artists' hands to mechanical processes. These methods prevailed until the digital revolution.
Modern Color Printing Techniques
Today, color printing has embraced cutting-edge technologies such as digital lithography. The predominant method used now is offset lithography, where a rubber drum receives the necessary color and water to form an image. This image is then transferred to an offset drum before being printed on paper or other media, enabling easy transfer of color photographs.
While offset printing remains the most cost-effective option at present, digital printing technologies are advancing rapidly. Eventually, newer methods may surpass offset printing in popularity.
Choosing the Right Printing Technique
Selecting the appropriate printing technique depends on achieving consistently high-quality results. Traditional full-color printing involves high setup costs, making it unsuitable for small batches. This often resulted in large, outdated inventories of preprinted materials. However, digital color printing is increasingly competing with offset printing.
Digital printing, often considered a well-kept industry secret, allows for high-resolution images and crisp text in short runs on demand. There are two primary types of digital printing. The first, purely electronic, uses no plates and toner-based ink on digital presses. The second, known as direct image (DI) printing, employs conventional ink and plates for smaller runs from 250 to 500 copies.
The Benefits of Printing in Color
With digital printing, producing vibrant, colorful materials has never been more accessible or affordable. Enhance your marketing materials with vivid colors and engaging images. Don’t hesitate to experiment with text in bold hues like red, tangerine, or deep green, complemented by captivating pictures.
Printing in color is now both affordable and versatile, offering endless opportunities to elevate your promotional content.
