In today's competitive environment, it is mandatory for printers to find new ways to reduce costs, waste, and setup time while adding value to the products they offer their customers.

Specifically, Lean Printing examines: The history and foundations of Lean manufacturing; the 5S method sort, straighten, shine, standardize, and sustain; setup reduction; total productive maintenance; how to build in quality at the source; visual management; Kaizen continuous improvement; value-stream mapping; incorporating consistent flow in the printing process.
