The Importance of Quality Paperboard Printing & Machinery in Packaging Automation
When we hear the word “automation,” a typical vision comes to mind: warehouses filled with machinery that are powered by sophisticated electronic technology that allow for efficiency, speed, accuracy, and less reliance on human manpower. Yet, have you ever considered the importance of how the quality of printed paperboard and machinery work together to contribute to these efficiencies? For the typical packaging engineer, maintenance manager, and plant manager, they know the ROI for each machine in time, labor, and output, and there is a love/hate relationship when it comes to the quality of printing that goes into packaging that is being fulfilled as it impacts the bottom line directly.
For industries that include, but are not limited to, food, pharmaceuticals, toys, and cosmetics, the success of their packaging, especially folded cartons, is measured closely, and high spoilage levels are frowned upon. As with any manufacturing process, there is a waste factor that is expected for set-up or what is known as “make-ready” costs in the printing industry. Typically 3-5% is factored in for this type of packaging waste which does not account for additional errors that can include, but are not limited to, the printed packaging not being pre-broken, seamed and palleted improperly, or has incorrect coatings which can interrupt automation workflows.
A perfect example of a packaging error is when a carton does not have the correct coating which creates a jam. That jam establishes a disruption in the output levels, drains labor resources, and if perishable items are part of the process, this establishes a need to re-freeze or refrigerate products so they don’t spoil. The challenge here is that typically, when margins get tight, purchasing departments will opt for a less experienced printing vendor or cut corners in the printing process that winds up costing more in the long run. As a result, it is important for the production team to answer the question, “When it comes to printed packaging, how much waste and automation disruption currently exists?” The numbers don’t lie; if the percentage is high or steadily increasing, it is time to make a vendor adjustment, especially in situations where hundreds of thousands of packages are being fulfilled on a daily basis.
It is important to look at the flip side of the equation in regard to quality machinery. In the packaging industry, vendors such as ADCO, who provide clear performance and efficiency guidelines, pride themselves on guaranteeing 98% minimum “uptime” for their machinery. There is a caveat: there are required efficiencies, one of which is the dependency on accurate printing specifications. The industry printing standards include “various coatings, scoring, die cutting, gluing, pre-breaking, weight and density, flatness, or warping, etc.” Another pertinent example is relative to the beauty industry and varnishing techniques. Soft-touch varnish is a finishing that we all know and love - it’s the velvety feeling that you experience on a printed piece, typically on the exterior box. How does this luxuriously printed end product make it through the manufacturing process with minimal scuffs, scrapes, and dents? It all comes down to the combination of the quality of the printing and machinery that can meticulously handle the packaging automation process without further damage.
Are you experiencing machinery and printing issues in your packaging fulfillment process? As an ADCO-complaint vendor, a dcc sales representative is available for an onsite visit to review your current automation processes and outline how you can benefit from next-level print production.

Top Tips for Specifying Print Projects BACK TO TOP

No matter the scale of your project, a lot of time, money, and effort goes into planning and production. Print production is often the final step in bringing your project to life, and it goes without saying that you want to ensure that the print process runs smoothly and that your end product meets all expectations. However, there are several common blunders that can occur leading up to and during print production that can cause issues or delays, even for the most experienced print buyers, and can cost you more time and money than anticipated. With proper preparation and knowledge, these mistakes can easily be avoided. Let’s take a look at some common mistakes and challenges that companies face, along with tips on how to properly specify your next print project and streamline the process so you avoid impacting your bottom line.
The success of any print job can hinge on proper specifications from the start. That is why it is key to establish clear communication with your printer so you can both ask questions, set clear expectations, and eliminate the guesswork that can result in lost time.

Challenges
Bidding. Challenges can occur immediately with the bidding process if companies don’t provide accurate or complete information. Oftentimes, companies will reach out to multiple printers to compare costs. Doing so may automate the process. However, facility-specific information might be lost during this process or further ideation and conceptualization could be lacking. Incomplete information provided to the printer can result in a loss of time and money, as well as inaccurate quotes. Knowing up front what your needs are or what questions to ask can help streamline the bidding process and set you up for success.
File Formats. Once a print project is bid and a printer has been procured, one of the most common mistakes that businesses make is not providing their print-ready files in the proper format. Printers typically require files submitted in a specific format. Clear communication with your printer can help determine what they need so you can provide the files accurately the first time. Providing the proper file format with sufficient resolution, proper color model, and correct fonts will help ensure design accuracy and consistency and help avoid issues down the road.
Proofing. Nothing will halt a project faster than identifying a typo or mistake midway through a press run, but believe it or not, not thoroughly proofing content and artwork is a common mistake that print buyers make. Spelling or grammatical errors, alignment issues, errors in image placement, and more, no matter how minor, can greatly impact your final project and cost you money and time if they need to be rectified. That is why it’s imperative to catch all errors prior to your press run and avoid potential issues.
Communication. Just like with any relationship, poor communication can be the downfall of a project and can affect your bottom line. Not being upfront and establishing clear communication with a single point of contact at your printer is another mistake that can lead to ambiguous expectations and cause avoidable issues. Communication is not only key but goes both ways. Printers should be clear with their needs and work with clients to establish clear-cut project goals.
Being aware of these challenges and avoiding common mistakes can help to ensure your project is a success and that the expectations of your business and the printer are met so that no additional time or money is wasted. Proper preparation can ensure that you avoid these pre-press blunders.
Tips for Success
Planning
Plan out your project in advance so that you provide the proper specifications to the printer from the beginning and ensure an accurate quote. Planning in advance will also provide you with ample time to make adjustments if and when issues arise. Some things to consider:
- File format - printers typically require specific formats, such as PDF, that prevent inconsistencies in color and fonts when set up properly. Submitting the wrong file format or low-resolution image files can cause issues with the printing process. It’s always a good idea to provide a PDF file with your specs when requesting a quote to help your printer visualize the project and provide the best recommendations possible.
- Color - knowing upfront how many and what colors your project will need will help your printer determine the best print method and an accurate quote. Are you using PMS colors for consistency? Will your project be full-color? Will there be spot UV? These are all things that will impact how your job is quoted, how you set up your files, and help your printer set you up for success.
- Page Setup - set up your documents with the correct dimensions, image layout, and bleed areas to avoid problems during printing and ensure that your final printed piece aligns with your vision.
- Quantities - when it comes to printing, it’s often the set-up process that adds the most cost to your project. It’s a best practice to order more than you think you’ll need to avoid paying set-up fees again if you need more. Ordering excess will be cheaper in the long run. It’s always a good idea to request a quote for multiple quantities upfront to see the cost breaks.
- Paper - knowing what type of paper is best for your project is crucial to the success of your project. There are so many paper options to choose from, ranging in weight, quality, color, texture, and more. Know what type of paper you envision for your project, and talk to your printer about what will work best. For example, uncoated paper will work best if your final printed piece will be written on. Other things to consider are the type of press, heavy ink coverage, cover pages, and multiple paper weights. If budget is a concern, specify your paper needs and ask for alternatives that will save you money. It’s also recommended to order your paper in advance so it can acclimate before it goes into production.
- Bindery - when it comes to printed pieces like brochures or booklets, providing accurate specifications for folding and binding will ensure a seamless process. Be sure to consider and specify any binding, gluing, scoring, etc., that may be needed. For example, if your project requires a pocket, designate whether it will be welded or glued, or if you are printing a book, what type of binding you want.
- Sustainability - if keeping your project “green” is a requisite, this is important information to discuss with your printer upfront so that they can provide you with FSC, sustainable, or recycled paper options, along with any other green mission practices.
Communication
Establish a relationship with your printer and identify a direct point of contact so that communication between you and your printer is easy and seamless. This will be the key to setting you up for success. Provide the printer with clear project goals and expectations and ask questions to ensure that you provide the printer with all the proper and accurate information to avoid delays, additional costs, and issues down the road. Keep communication clear throughout the print process so you can address issues promptly as they arise.
Pre-Press
You have provided initial specifications to the printer, and they have provided you with quotes, so now it’s time to prepare your project for the press. If your project was specified accurately, you shouldn’t run into any major issues, but there are still things to consider before you go to press.
- Samples - request samples of paper and ink as needed so that there are no surprises down the road.
- Proofs - request that your printer provide proofs before going into final production. This will help flag any missing images, fonts, or layout issues.
- Recommendations - rely on your printer to guide you through the process and be open to suggestions and feedback. Your printer has lots of experience and will know what will work best for your project while still meeting your expectations.
- Press Checks - be on-site for any press checks so that you can review initial sheets and ensure all of the details are correct. Any issues can be addressed and corrected in real time before full quantities are printed.
Hot Tips!
Check out these great tips and tricks from the dcc pros to get you started!
- If producing a saddle stitch book, the total page count should be divisible by 4 (unless you want gate folds!)
- Large format projects should be supplied in CMYK color mode.
- If printing a book that is more than 28 pages on heavy stock, consider wire-o binding vs. perfect binding.
- When printing on uncoated paper, running a UV aqueous coating is recommended.
- Provide a PDF with your specifications to help your printer visualize the project and fill any holes.
- If sustainability is important, specify this upfront.

Paperboard Packaging: Solutions and Sustainability BACK TO TOP

dcc Contributes To the Cause with No Minimum Order Quantities
Print is what we do, and we are known in the print production industry for
our quality, broad capabilities, and customer service. Over the past two
years, we have successfully built upon our strengths by expanding our
folded carton and paperboard packaging division. In a world where there is
a strong concentration on shifting to digital marketing, there is a lot of
debate about the future of print. However, as long as there are
consumables on the market, there will always be a need for packing and
packaging consumer products. Whether on shelves at the grocery store or
shipped directly to consumers, a product's packaging is an integral part of
the consumer experience. Each packaging component is a touchpoint
between a brand and its consumer. Packaging tells a story, is your brand's
first impression, and can speak volumes about your business. Yet, even
though we don’t see a decline in packaging production (in fact, the size of
the packaging printing market is expected to grow 8% over the next 5 years1),
it is not without its challenges.
There is a growing demand for sustainable and compostable packaging
over plastics. Studies show that more than a third of global consumers will
pay more for sustainability, and 61% of consumers in the U.S. consider
sustainability when making a purchase.2 This presents a challenge for
packaging production, as printers must not only source environmentally-
friendly materials but should also consider where and how those materials
are sourced, the carbon footprint associated with them, the cost, the
durability, the functionality, and the printing capabilities of the chosen
medium. As if that wasn’t enough, they also need to maintain compliance
with ever-evolving regulations.
Firstly, we’ll take a look at e-commerce. As the e-commerce industry
continues to grow at a substantial rate, so does the demand for sustainable
and efficient packaging solutions. Tackling these challenges requires a
great deal of innovation and ongoing development. Lisa Pierce, Executive
Editor of Packaging Digest, says, “A sustainably optimized package for
e-commerce groceries is one that is right-sized, can be properly disposed
of in a circular way - meaning recyclable or reusable - and keeps the
product safe and protected through the entire shipping process physically
and thermally.”3
So, what’s the best choice? Paperboard packaging may be the packaging
answer the industry is looking for, as it presents a solution to these
challenges, along with many other benefits:
- Paperboard is made from renewable materials, is recyclable, and
often compostable or biodegradable, making it a great alternative to
plastic and a great solution for the sustainable packaging demand. - Paperboard packaging’s structural versatility allows it to function in
many different ways in order to provide stability. This not only
provides protection for shipping and handling purposes but also
saves on the need for additional costs and materials to help protect
the product. - Paperboard packaging is cost-effective, not only because it is less
expensive to produce than many other materials, but it is also more
lightweight, making it less expensive to ship for e-commerce
businesses. - In terms of your brand’s first impression, you want your packaging to
reflect your brand and provide a unique experience for the consumer. Paperboard packaging can work with a myriad of different printing methods to help create a custom, distinctive experience and tell your brand’s story. - Paperboard is so versatile that it solves almost any design challenge.
It can be used for custom and personalized designs utilizing variable
data, QR codes, embedding LCD video components, and more, and
paperboard can be used for both shipping, direct-to-shelf display
packaging solutions, and even the perfect ambassador or influencer
mailing.
E-commerce and consumer brands should consider the benefits of
paperboard to meet their unique packaging needs and look to packaging
suppliers and producers who use sustainable materials, have a “green”
mission, and are continuously thinking outside the box to come up with
innovative and unique solutions to meet brands’ expectations.
So where does dcc fit into this equation? We are equipped to handle your
paperboard packaging needs without limitations. In this modern digital age,
companies want production to be quicker, cheaper, and more efficient.
Firstly, we offer fast turnaround times at competitive pricing with no
minimum order quantities, so there is little waste. Executive Vice President
at dcc, Cary Battaglia, mentioned, “We hear that larger specialty packaging
printers have large minimum orders that can equate to 200,000+ pieces.
Therefore, if the client only needs 20,000, they pay for the full amount and
then throw out the remainder. dcc is able to support the smaller runs in a
more cost-effective and sustainable manner.” Secondly, we ship worldwide
and work with a number of suppliers who offer sustainable raw materials,
like Neenah Folding Board, available in a range of colors, weights, and
textures and made from premium fibers. Thirdly, we can customize your
design, add variable personalized data, and utilize real-time quality control
with machine learning - all with less energy consumption. And did we
mention fast turnaround times? Here at dcc, we can do it all, from
retouching to printing, fulfillment, and drop-shipping. We are ready to tackle
your challenging packaging project in its entirety!

Printing for the Luxury Industry BACK TO TOP

dcc has had the privilege of working with some of the most respected high-end luxury brands in the world. They come to us to bring their creative visions to life because we hold ourselves to the highest standards possible when it comes to print production and customer service. The tactility of print is a natural fit for the luxury and fashion industry which relies on high-quality printing techniques to help brands maintain their high-end image, but this comes with many unique challenges. With the right expertise and equipment, these challenges can be overcome to produce high-quality, premium printed materials that drive marketing goals forward.
Let’s take a look at some of the challenges that luxury brands face when it comes to print.
Brand image. Luxury brands often rely on high-quality printing techniques to maintain their premium image. Any printing mistakes or flaws can be detrimental to the brand's reputation.
Consistency. Luxury brands often have a distinct look and feel that must be consistent across all print materials, including packaging, brochures, and advertisements. Achieving this consistency across multiple mediums and print techniques can be challenging.
Unique Materials. Luxury brands often rely on high-end, unique materials, such as vinyl, plexiglass, and specialty papers, such as synthetic stocks, to maintain a premium look and feel. These materials require specialized printing techniques and equipment to produce high-quality results.
Limited print runs. Luxury often means exclusive and brands may produce limited editions or small batches of their products. Smaller print runs can be more challenging and expensive.
Security. Many luxury brands use special printing techniques and security features to prevent counterfeiting. These features can be complex and require specialized equipment and expertise to produce.
With the right expertise and equipment, dcc has overcome these challenges and made its mark within the industry. Our Vice President of Sales, Jeff Bogart answers some questions about how dcc overcomes some of the challenges and how the power of aligning print partnerships helps to elevate luxury brands and achieve a higher ROI.
Q: How long has dcc been supporting luxury brands and how did you get your entrée into the vertical?
A: Since our humble beginnings we have been working with high-end fashion and luxury brands.
Q: Brand image is paramount to luxury clients. How do you marry high-quality retouching with printing techniques to achieve the best end product?
A: The ability to reproduce an image across many mediums is critical to the success of any high-end brand. It’s not easy to do but through our device profiling and constant calibration of our output devices, we make it simple to keep your image looking consistent over many different substrates.
Q: Color consistency is key and is difficult to achieve when you are printing on many substrates including paper, board, vinyl, and more. What technologies and/or processes does dcc have in place to ensure consistency?
A: Not only are we Gracol certified but we have many different output devices under 1 “roof” that are all calibrated. We have a fashion client that utilizes all of our capabilities. We started out with a camera raw image that is retouched and color corrected. From there the image was used for an in-store sign, a backlit cash wrap, a fabric hanging banner, and a printed handout.
Q: When it comes to ink on paper, jewelry, and precious metals are very difficult to reproduce accurately. What are your tips?
A: The key to reproducing jewelry is that we need a good starting point from what the photographer captures. They need to be able to capture as much detail as possible so that we can reproduce the jewelry in the best way possible. Our retouchers have extensive experience in setting up the proper balance needed to accurately reproduce the jewelry. Because we are printing with a 300-line screen, hybrid dot we are able to hold that important detail of the jewelry on press.
Q: What are some of the industry challenges that luxury brands are facing and how do you solve them?
A: Luxury and retail are about speed to market with the latest fashion trends. We are set up to support a brand's marketing efforts as we are nimble and quick to produce marketing materials that can support marketing programs.
Q: With ambassadors and influencers playing a key role in marketing measures and consumers valuing limited-edition products, small print runs can be challenging and expensive. What capabilities does dcc have that support their client’s needs?
A: Digital printing is a cost-effective medium for limited-edition marketing. Using variable data we are able to personalize the experience of the marketing material. This has become a popular tool for smaller campaigns.
Q: Staffing is an ongoing challenge across every industry and employees/print buyers are being asked to do more. How does dcc’s longevity and craftsmanship help to solve this issue?
A: The majority of our team has been with us for many years. We understand print but more importantly, we understand how to service our client base and exceed their expectations. These days everyone has to do more and wear many different hats. We are always happy to jump in and take some of those additional tasks off our clients' plates.
Q: According to a trending article from Luxe Digital on February 22, 2023, Sustainable Luxury: Millennials Buy Into Socially Conscious Brands, “Millennials and Generation Z consumers are driving 85 percent of global luxury sales growth, their expectation for luxury brands to be aligned with their values becomes increasingly important. … A study from Nielsen showed that 73 percent of Millennial respondents were willing to spend more on a product if it comes from a sustainable or socially conscious brand.” What does dcc do to support the sustainability efforts of its luxury clients?
A: Sustainability is an important part of what we do every day at dcc. Reducing our carbon footprint has been a priority. All of our waste that is generated is recycled, reused, or turned into electrical energy. Our 675 rooftop solar panels generate clean renewable power. We are also an SGP and FSC-certified supplier.
Q: What is the most challenging project that you have worked on for a luxe client and how did you solve the problem?
A: Every now and then a project comes up where we really get to showcase all of our skills and talents. When we have a challenge our teams get excited and really like to step up to make it happen. Recently we were tasked to create a one-off fabric swatch presentation for a very special VIP that happens to reside in Washington D.C. Our large format and digital group rose to the challenge to help make this special project happen.
Q: Relationships and customer service. Why do luxe brands choose dcc?
A: Many of our clients have been with us for many years and there’s a reason for that. We understand the relationship and trust that many of our clients put in us, day in and day out. Our goal is always to deliver what we promise each and every time. That’s what sets us apart.

It’s time to start planning. You’ve settled on a date and secured a venue and keynote speaker, but what printed items will you need to support your event? An event’s printed materials serve many purposes, from setting the tone for the event to providing crucial information and helping you stay organized.
Here’s a list of must-haves, from small to big, to ensure your event is a success.
Attendee Items
- Invitation – You won’t have a successful event without any guests, so the first step is to invite people to join. Many may opt for digital e-vites to save time and money, but a customized, printed invite can be very impactful and help set the event's tone and theme.
- Flyers – Flyers help you share crucial information, such as announcements or company and speaker bios, about your event and keep attendees in the loop.
- Printed Tickets – Customized event tickets will help keep you organized and track attendees. In this modern, digital age, printed tickets may not be necessary, but they can help to create a professional feel and provide your guests with insight into what to expect.
- Badges for attendees – Name badges not only help your guests network, but they are also one of the first items they receive when they arrive, so they should also set the tone.
- Programs – Programs might be the most essential item for an event because they guide participants, letting them know where they should be and when they should be there.
- Business Cards – One of the purposes of hosting an event is to network and build lasting professional connections. Be prepared to share your information with attendees in a professional way with high-quality business cards.
Large Format Items
- Event Signage – Signage is crucial to any event for many reasons. It helps highlight your brand, create a cohesive look and feel for the event, and provide crucial information to attendees. One of the best ways to accomplish this is with large format, custom-printed banners, posts, and signs.
- Wayfinding/Directional Signage – You want your event to be a seamless and easy experience for your attendees. This is easily accomplished with signage that clearly lets them know where they are and where to go so they don’t miss any of the exciting parts of the day.
- Floor graphics– Floor graphics can really help to build a cohesive brand presence and tie everything together.
Event Giveaways
- Custom Swag – Send your guests home with a custom, branded package to help thank them for attending. This will also serve as a reminder of your brand and your capabilities after the event.
- Ambassador or Speaker Gifts – Custom printed packages for your speakers, ambassadors, and/or influencers will not only thank them for participating but will also provide them with branded material to continue to promote your brand on their channels.
There is a lot to consider when planning an event, and you may be thinking about the impact of all of these printed materials on the environment. Incorporating printed materials into your event may be unavoidable, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do it with sustainability in mind. Here are some tips to help make your print project more environmentally friendly.
- Maximize your paper sheet. Work with your printer to size and format your printed piece most efficiently. Even if it means adjusting the size of your creative to allow more copies to fit on one sheet, also, always print double-sided when you can!
- Avoid plastic. If you need your printed pieces to be durable, cardstock, paperboard, and other heavy-weight materials are always a great choice and can be recycled after use. Try to avoid using lamination or single-use plastics to eliminate waste.
- Choose wisely. Work with a printer that uses sustainable printing practices, such as a Sustainable Green Printing certified facility. An SGP-certified printer will have more sustainable paper and ink options, such as FSC-certified (Forest Stewardship Council®) paper stock and water-based inks. They may also take measures to increase efficiency and reduce consumption and waste.
- Go everGREEN. If your event is recurring, reduce your waste and expenses by creating event signage that can be used year after year by omitting time-sensitive details where you can.
There are many moving parts to consider when planning an event, no matter how large. The convenience of a full-service, one-stop shop to handle all your printing and fulfillment needs can help alleviate some of the stress that event planning brings. That is where dcc, the HP Indigo 15K press, and its large format presses come in! For over 25 years, dcc has delivered high-end, striking images and printed pieces as a fully integrated graphics company specializing in color retouching and printing. And our new Indigo can truly do it all! Let us transform your event concept into whatever form you need, help take your event to the next level, and ensure it’s a success!
