Colonial Printing

I’m starting a mazaine in a couple of months and am wondering what equipment I would need to do this. Would it be more economical to take my savings and get my own printing press that prints magazines or just pay someone every month to do it?

Thanks!

I will tell you one thing, magazines are printed on a web which is cheaper, faster, more economical than buying the web printer which sells in the millions. The cost to print a magazine is around 50 to 75 cents each when printing in volume.

The printing, assembling, sorting , collation is all done on the same press and takes about 1 minute per book.

Here is what a web offset printing machine looks like and you can imagine the cost from there.
