In a POD model, the printing process is only initiated once an order has been received, rather than printing a large quantity of copies in advance. This allows for smaller print runs, reducing the risk of unsold inventory and minimizing storage costs.
POD technology typically uses digital printing techniques that can produce high-quality prints quickly and at a lower cost compared to traditional printing methods. The printed materials are often produced in a variety of formats, including paperback, hardcover, and even e-books.
The popularity of print-on-demand has allowed for a wider range of content to be published, including niche topics and self-published works. It has also allowed for independent authors and small publishers to enter the market, as the cost and risk associated with printing large quantities of books is significantly reduced.
Overall, print-on-demand offers a flexible and cost-effective publishing solution that has revolutionized the printing industry.
