The Finishing Equipment Gap: Why Wide Format Shops Are Leaving Money on the Table
Wide Format Impressions data shows finishing equipment is having a growing impact on production inkjet throughput -- meaning the bottleneck in many shops is not the printer, it is what happens after the print. As inkjet speeds increase, finishing workflows that cannot keep pace make rated printer speeds theoretical rather than operational. Roland DG's integrated print-and-cut DTF system is the clearest example of the market responding to this constraint.
