Ball Media Corporation is proud to announce the creation of a new division dedicated to the self-publishing needs of authors. Ball Media Book Factory will provide writers, authors and publishing companies with a new department and web presence focused on their unique needs.
John Ball, President of Ball Media Corporation says the new site and company division will leverage the technical strength and on-demand print expertise of the company to solve long-standing problems with traditional book publishing. "It's always been risky and expensive to publish a book due to the large quantities and minimum orders imposed by the conventional printing process. Our leading edge on-demand print technologies make it possible for budding authors and smaller publishing companies to produce any quantity of book stock. By printing only the copies they need they improve their cash-flow and that helps them stay efficient and profitable."
The launch of Ball Book Factory coincides with the acquisition of state-of-the-art on-demand printing technology that will deliver higher output and quality superior to traditional printing methods. This tremendous increase in capacity is due in part to an automated perfect binder and automated trimmer from Prism Graphics as well as the upcoming installation of two award winning presses from Xerox, the iGen3 90 and the Nuvera 120EA.
"We have the ability to print and bind books in both small and large quantities with quicker turn times than ever before. Publishers no longer need to print large volume runs through traditional offset."
The printing industry continues to change and Ball Media Corporation and Ball Book Factory are leading the way by taking full advantage of the low cost and high quality and output of the latest high end commercial digital printers and support machinery.
