Variable data printing means you have the same basic design, but wish to add a unique element to each print, for example, an address or number. Some common examples used for variable data printing are business cards, event place cards, postcards, promotional items with discount codes– and of course, envelopes!
For example, if you want to print envelopes to send out your holiday cards and you want the same return address, but a different recipient address, then variable data printing may be right for you! Learn more about envelope printing and the cost of printed envelopes.
