Facing a variety of edge designs and printing machine options, publishers need to consider what kind of edge design to choose for their books and what kind of printing machine to choose for their bookbinding business to promote business development. This is not only related to the appearance and quality of the book but also one of the key factors to stand out in the highly competitive book market.
Book edge printing is a technique that applies CMYK four-color or CMYKRGB eight-color ink on the edges of book pages, endowing the book with unique charm and fully unleashing the design potential of the book.
1. Printing Process and Effects
Color Application
This process can apply solid colors on one, two, or three edges of the book, creating a stunning visual effect. Whether it is a hardcover, softcover, or softcover with a dust jacket, book edge printing can present with perfect printing pressure and publishing atmosphere. Even with artistic rounded corners or unique shapes, each edge has a different and unique pattern.
Design Expansion and Reading Experience Enhancement
Extending the design to all sides of the book (including the edges) can create a coherent and profound reading experience. For example, in a fantasy novel, if the edges adopt graphics inspired by the magical world described in the book, it can highlight the content, attract readers, and enhance the overall attractiveness of the book.

Working Mode and Efficiency
The new HXEP400 book edge digital printing machine is equipped with two workstations. When one workstation is printing, the operator can load or unload books at the other workstation. After the first workstation finishes printing, the print head moves to the second workstation to continue, ensuring that the operator can handle the affairs of the first workstation at the same time. The continuous ink flow avoids nozzle clogging and realizes uninterrupted printing, ensuring the highest productivity and efficiency.
Printing Accuracy and Control
During the printing process, the workstation only moves forward and backward stably without any deviation during inkjet printing. This intelligent printing method ensures an accuracy of ±0.02 mm. The inkjet nozzle automatically controls the amount of ink sprayed, and the book is fixed by clamps and baffles to ensure that the ink is only sprayed on the surface of the book edge and does not penetrate into the interior.
Equipment Configuration and Function
The standard book edge printing machine is configured with a professional layout computer and RIP software and can perform multiple printing tasks simultaneously.
