Digital printing on planners (Cyprus)
Digital printing on planners in Cyprus — full-colour CMYK digital print on paperboard and PU leather-faced planner covers. Runs from 30 units, 5–7 business day lead time from Limassol.
Why digital printing is the right call for full-colour artwork on a planner at low volume
A Nicosia law firm wanted 80 branded A5 dated planners for year-end client gifts, each carrying a full-colour photograph of the firm's signature office on the cover. Debossing was slow at low volume; UV printing was possible. Digital printing on a HP Indigo 12000 with soft-touch lamination printed the photograph edge-to-edge at 1200 dpi on the PU leather-faced paperboard cover, finished the run in 6 business days. Cost: €9.40 per planner on a Castelli A5 PU leather-faced 12-month dated planner.
