Since 2011, Webcom has invested over $30 million in leading-edge digital inkjet technology to provide an end-to-end full service publishing solution. In June 2016, Webcom was selected as HP’s original collaborator on the worldwide launch of the HP OneBook solution. This powered Webcom’s new print-on-demand solution, BookOnDemand, providing production flexibility, order efficiency and faster turnarounds from quantities of 1 to 100’s.
