Featured Product: Digital Business Cards

There is nothing more memorable than leaving your customer, client, or prospect with a business card that emanates your brand. Your brand defines who you are as a company and what your company values.

The tactile quality of a business card will always help create the lasting impression that you hope to leave. As a company that values the beauty of tactile print, we also recognize the advantages of digital. We have always tried to stay at the forefront of merging technology with our customers’ experience, which is why we started to develop our online portals for our customers in 1999.

Today, we are bringing a new product to our customers that will merge the beauty of print with the practicality of digital. We are now offering our customers the ability to integrate digital into print with custom buildable QR codes and NFC chips, developed seamlessly into your brand.

The objective of leaving a business card behind is to leave all of your important contact information with the person you met. Often, because of the medium, valuable data doesn’t make it to a place where it can be functionally stored. They stay in wallets, card decks, and other places where the intent is to keep it where you need it, but it might not always be there when you actually do.

This is why QR codes and NFC chips are so beneficial in branding. When you integrate our custom QR codes and/or NFC chips into your branded products, the codes will directly link all the information you wish to allocate directly to the address book or digital deliverable of your prospect.

This includes multiple phone numbers, your title, your company, your email, address, and even your website. All delivered directly to your prospect’s phone address book to be stored indefinitely. It will deliver all of this functionality with the classic sophistication of print, the most professional way to deliver your brand’s messaging.

Making all of your information available when your prospect needs it, which in the moment, is priceless.

Connect Your Brand

Each digitally connected print product can be seamlessly integrated with the technology and data that our portals already utilize to build your company’s brand. They can be simply integrated into the system your company is already familiar with.

If you would like to discuss the benefits and technology behind our on-demand, custom-built digital cards and other digitally connected branded products, we would love to have that conversation.

Micro Screening in Offset Printing – Because Details Matter

Micro Screening – Because Details Matter

In the world of print, achieving exceptional image quality is crucial. Whether crafting captivating photographs, intricate graphics, or vibrant materials, the ability to capture fine details and reproduce colors accurately is essential. Enter micro screening, a powerful technique revolutionizing print quality.

Micro screening breaks down images into minuscule dots or pixels, precisely arranged to create smooth gradients, fine details, and accurate colors. This meticulous process ensures sharp, vibrant, true-to-life prints.

Unlike traditional screening methods, which rely on larger dots and coarser patterns, micro screening utilizes much smaller dots and finer patterns, allowing for greater detail and resolution. By leveraging advanced algorithms and software, micro screening optimizes dot placement, smoothing transitions between colors and minimizing unwanted artifacts like moiré patterns.

The Benefits of Micro Screening:

Superior Image Quality

Micro screening enables the reproduction of images with exceptional clarity, sharpness, and detail, elevating the overall quality of printed materials.

Enhanced Color Accuracy

With micro screening, colors are reproduced with remarkable accuracy, ensuring that prints faithfully capture the nuances and subtleties of the original artwork or design.

Reduced Moiré Patterns

Micro screening helps minimize the occurrence of moiré patterns, those unwanted interference patterns that can detract from the quality of printed images, resulting in cleaner and more professional-looking prints.

Increased Print Resolution

By utilizing smaller dots and finer patterns, micro screening allows for higher print resolutions, making it possible to reproduce fine text, intricate graphics, and high-quality photographs with unparalleled clarity and precision.

Versatility and Flexibility

Micro screening is compatible with a wide range of printing substrates and ink types, offering printers greater flexibility in meeting diverse printing requirements and delivering exceptional results across various applications.

Types of Screens

Stochastic Micro Screen:

Stochastic screening, also known as FM (frequency modulation) screening, utilizes random dot patterns of varying sizes instead of traditional halftone dots. These dots are dispersed evenly across the image, creating a more natural and continuous gradient.

  • Advantages:
    • Improved image quality: Stochastic screens produce smoother gradients and finer details compared to traditional halftone screens, resulting in higher-quality prints.
    • Minimized moiré patterns: By eliminating regular dot patterns, stochastic screens reduce the occurrence of moiré patterns, especially in high-frequency areas.
    • Increased color fidelity: Stochastic screening allows for better color control and accuracy, leading to more vibrant and lifelike prints.

Hybrid Standard Micro Screen:

Hybrid screening combines traditional halftone dots with stochastic dots in specific areas of the image. This approach combines the benefits of both screening methods to optimize print quality.

  • Advantages:
    • Enhanced detail rendition: Hybrid screening preserves fine details while minimizing the risk of moiré patterns, striking a balance between image quality and consistency.
    • Versatility: Hybrid screening allows printers to adapt dot patterns based on the requirements of different images, providing flexibility in achieving optimal results across various print jobs.
    • Improved efficiency: By selectively applying stochastic dots where needed, hybrid screening can optimize ink usage and reduce printing time without sacrificing quality.

Standard Micro Screen:

Standard screening, also known as conventional halftone screening, employs regular dot patterns of fixed size and spacing. These dots vary in size to reproduce different tones and shades in the printed image.

  • Advantages:
    • Cost-effectiveness: Standard screening is a cost-efficient option for most print jobs, as it requires less processing time and resources compared to stochastic or hybrid screening methods.
    • Wide compatibility: Standard screens are widely supported by printing equipment and software, making them accessible and easy to implement for printers of all sizes.
    • Predictable results: With well-established parameters and workflows, standard screening delivers consistent and predictable print results, making it a reliable choice for many commercial printing applications.

Leveraging our Heidelberg SX74 offset printing press, which combines micro screening precision with advanced capabilities, we deliver superior print quality. Whether utilizing stochastic screening for smoother gradients or traditional halftone screening for reliable results, our printing solutions are crafted to meet the highest standards of quality and precision.
