Five Key Challenges for Powering Print Profitability

NAPCO's White Paper sets out a new formula for production print success.

Let’s face it. Print providers seem to be hit with new challenges at every turn. Supply chain disruptions, inflation, labour shortages, declines in print volumes, price competition, heightened security requirements and changing customer needs have changed the business. The old formula for success— the printer’s triangle of quality, delivery and price,—is still relevant, but providers need to layer on top of it the new paradigm of value, innovation, security and sustainability.

A new white paper, commissioned by Xerox and written by NAPCO, probes this landscape and the print providers’ response based upon key findings from current PRINTING United Alliance and NAPCO Research surveys. It describes the print providers’ shift to this new business model and provides a fresh look at where the graphic communications market is today and where it’s likely going moving forward.

What are your challenges?

BeatProfitability Tangram

Beat your profitability targets

Profitability targets can be elusive when you face staffing issues, monochrome customers who believe colour is too expensive, cumbersome job acquisition and new job on boarding processes—and the constant challenge of getting the most for your money, saving for the future and protecting your investments.

Accellerate Tangram

Accelerate your productivity

The peak performance that is required to meet demand for more short run jobs and more quick turnarounds is hard to achieve when your workflow has a lot of time-intensive manual tasks and you’re further slowed by outdated software, file problems and errors.

Differentiate Tangram

Win more business

If you struggle to offer a wider range of high-value applications because your colour costs are too high and you lack media flexibility, standout image quality, and digital embellishments, you may be missing out on some of your market’s best opportunities.

Sustainability Tangram

Champion sustainability

Your customers want you to reduce your carbon footprint, use less power, reduce waste, source paper sustainably, and generally support clean air and water initiatives. Establishing sustainability practices requires effort, but it can lead to increased business, operational efficiency—and a healthier planet.

Security Tangram

Ensure data security

Data drives your operation and many of your customers’ high-performing communications programs, but also brings new security requirements—and threats—to your shop. Cyberattacks and database breaches are on the rise putting your customers’ data—and your business—at risk.

It’s Your Move
