Digital Printing
Anders Printing, LLC provides the superb quality of Xerox Laser Printers. Xerox Docucolor equipment can output high quality short runs at an affordable cost. Digital or variable data printing uses electrophotography and does not require film or dies. Digital Printers use a dry toner vs. a wet ink. The digital presses at Anders Printing can print paper up to 13x19 inches.

Offset printing
Offset printing is a technique where the image is transferred from a plate to a rubber blanket, and then to the printing surface.
These printing presses use petroleum or soy based inks.
High volume jobs benefit from this process because of the speed and consistency of quality. Another advantage is the ability to print on a wider range of papers and sizes.
Nearly all print jobs can be produced by traditional offset printing techniques. Offset printing in conjunction with digital printing can provide uncommon solutions and flexibility. This can save time and money for most high-volume products.
Film must be made for jobs that have close registry between colors or screens of color. This process adds cost. Each color of ink also adds cost.
Originals vs. Copies
"Originals” are sent from computer generated digital files and are produced at a high resolution print quality.
Each piece produced within a run is an “original”. Copies are second generation reproductions of an original scanned from a glass bed and are produced at a lower quality than the original.
Anders Printing off the glass copiers are some of the highest quality that are available.
