Variable data printing should grow from representing 17 percent of the digital print volume in 2005 to 30 percent in 2008, added Alon Bar-Shany, vice president and general manager of HP’s Indigo Digital Press Div. Nearly a quarter of the total volume in 2008 should come from run lengths of greater than 2,000 pages, while run lengths under 1,000 pages will decline from 37 percent of the total in 2005 to 11 percent in 2008, he asserted.
