The most lucrative way of advertising your company's products or services are through postcards. They not only conveniently reach your perspective customers but they are considered cost effective as well.


The real meaning of success in any promotional campaign is to be able to reach the targeted sectors of the market. In this instance, the quality of the printed postcards plays an integral part in the success of the campaign. Therefore, if your design and information is not of a very high standard then it is more than likely that your output will reflect that too. The success of your campaign also relies on the output and so if the printing machine that is used does not print in high-resolution graphics then all of your efforts will seem to have been wasted.


Offset presses were used in the past when printing postcards but nowadays more and more printing companies use digital presses. They like the flexibility and options that the machines provide and the output is of the highest quality. From the many design templates to the ability of merging your mailing lists with the design are just two of the primary benefits when using a digital press.


Digital printer manufactures offer various features and attachments in their digital presses. Canon, hp and Kodak are leaders in this field because their machines deliver high-quality prints every time. Their machines are built in such a way to accommodate paper transfer and printing. All of the operations are simply controlled electronically by a control panel.


Different stocks of Gloss, Matte, and Pearl finish and of varied thickness (GSM) can be used for printing. All machines are capable of printing up to A3-sized papers. The printing speed is usually around 4000 sheets of A4 sized paper per hour for four different colors (CMYK) printing and 16000 copies of A4 sheets for black and white printing.


The postcard design can be directly downloaded from the Internet and can be viewed in the monitor of the control panel. It is possible to queue up jobs one after another based on priority.


Many postcards printing machines offer the option of both side printing at one go that delivers the finished postcards at a lesser turn around time. Variable data printing is the most powerful feature of these printing machines. These digital presses can make each and every postcard customized and unique. That is why digital printing is gaining growing acceptance in postcards printing segment.


After the printing is done, the printed sheet is given the final shape of postcard by cutting and trimming. However, it may be sent to other operations like UV varnishing, embossing, and leafing in case special effects are needed. Nevertheless, digital printing is recommended for short-run jobs and having requirement for variable data printing, but for long run jobs offset printing is still preferred.
