custom printing
Made-to-order reproductions
Custom printing is the production of printed materials according to a customer's specifications rather than from standard templates.
The term covers everything from business cards and t-shirts to banners and packaging: We ordered custom printing for the wedding invitations.
The emphasis is on personalization—logos, names, colors, or designs chosen by the buyer.
