In vs. off (line) — A "Fight" to the Finish

Off-line: You can have multiple presses printing roll-to-roll to supply one off-line system, so capital expense is much lower. Four in-lines vs. one off-line.

Off-line: Off-lines can be made with variable-size cutoffs, so if you have two presses and both have different cutoffs, you can finish in those cutoff sizes.
