Introduction
If you think for a second that the digitalization of things has entirely sent the printing press packing, you might want to have a rethink there.
Though it’s evident for all to see that, with the advent of digital media, many folks jumped on the bandwagon and love to do their things on the cloud. This is only true to a certain degree. Because some people still love the feel of paper in their hands, they still love the smell of the woodsy pulp and would always go for paperback over reading on devices.
Take, for example, the daily newspapers. Yes, we can argue that the number of readers has drastically reduced, but newspapers are printed every other day and sold to people out there. Still, the paper lives!
Further stressing the point that was built above, even most digital media companies put out brochures, leaflets, and other printed materials. This brings us to the focus point of this discourse: commercial printing.
Commercial printing is generally machines used to print business materials such as leaflets, flyers, brochures, etc. There are several types of commercial printing with their unique specialization. A couple of these will be reviewed in subsequent sections.
