The difference between printing and inkjet printing

There are some differences between printing and inkjet printing in production technology, application scope and presentation effect.

Production technology: Printing mainly uses printing plates to transfer ink to the surface of paper, plastic and other substrates, thus realizing the reproduction of patterns and characters. Inkjet, on the other hand, uses inkjet technology to spray ink on the surfaces of various materials to form colorful and realistic patterns and characters.

Application: Printing is mainly used in books, newspapers, packaging and other fields, while inkjet printing is more used in outdoor advertising, posters, exhibitions and other fields.

Rendering effect: the printing accuracy and color saturation are high, which can realize high-precision printing, but the production cost is relatively high. Ink-jet printing can realize large-area ink-jet printing with bright and full colors, high image definition and relatively low production cost.

To sum up, printing and inkjet printing are different in production technology, application scope and presentation effect, so they need to be selected and used according to specific needs.
