Job Ticketing in the Electronic Age

"The job ticket is always the primary focus for customization. The development tools we use today make this type of customization much easier than it was a couple of years ago," asserts Micro Ink's Andersen.

Debbie Doby, COO of PRIMAC Systems, is one of those suppliers lauding customization features. She says printers may want to use multiple job ticket layouts, tailored to the unique needs of different product lines or plants: such as one for roll-label products and one for commercial printing; one for paperback books and one for casebound books.
