Book Arts Program News - Digital Printing

The final new development for the Book Arts program this year (see developments #1 and #2) is a fantastic new digital printing set-up for use by participants in both the letterpress and the bindery studios. It includes a computer, software, scanner, and printer so students can explore the artistic possibilities of digital printing without leaving the studio! We’re really excited about this, and we hope it gets a lot of use in this year’s workshops and College Course 11, the Book Arts Studio Seminar.

We don't have any specific workshops focused around digital printing yet, but we're open to new ideas and suggestions, so let us know if you have any thoughts on classes you'd like to see us offer. We can't wait to see what creative projects students come up with using this new equipment!

  5. One of the reasons self-publishing online is so much more affordable is that book printing costs aren't really a factor up front. In the past, a self-published author would have to already have enough money to buy copies of his book from a book printing company. These companies usually have a minimum order, so the author would have to order hundreds, or even thousands, of copies of his book. And if he didn't manage to sell those books, that was money lost.

  6. There are a hundred reasons why digital printing is never going to go out of style, and I'm sure if we put our minds to it we could come up with that many and then some. The bottom line, however, is this; as long as the need for a tangible, printed product is there, digital printing will be too.
