Background
 PrintBox
is the developer of Printing At The Desktop
-- using our cousin technology "Desktop Publishing"
you make one copy which is master used by conventional printing
and copying techniques; with "Desktop Printing",
you make many.
Why would you want to do that? Because with
our products, every copy is unique -- consider a ticket: every
ticket has a different number, or different seat assignment.
Therefore Printing at the Desktop is really an integration
technique -- we combine several print technologies with the
result being a completed product in a single pass!
