Reducing Ink Costs

Other factors, such as competition for the same raw materials in other markets and weather conditions all contribute to the rising costs of printing ink.

Despite these price increases, ink costs may seem trivial at an estimated five percent or less of the total cost of a printed job. Package printers frequently find that inks can cost them in other ways, such as incorrectly mixed spot colors that not only waste ink, but could also result in rejected printed material.
