Icapiro rya digitale bivuga uburyo bwo gucapa kuva mubishusho bishingiye kuri digitale kugeza mubitangazamakuru bitandukanye. Mubisanzwe bivuga gucapura kabuhariwe aho imirimo-ntoya ituruka kumatangazo ya desktop hamwe nandi masoko ya digitale yacapishijwe ukoresheje imiterere nini na / cyangwa nini cyane ya laser cyangwa inkjet. Icapiro rya digitale rifite igiciro cyinshi kurupapuro kurenza uburyo bwa gakondo bwo gucapa bwa offset, ariko iki giciro mubisanzwe cyuzuzwa hirindwa ikiguzi cyintambwe zose za tekiniki zisabwa kugirango ukore ibyapa. Iremera kandi kubisabwa-icapiro, igihe gito cyo guhinduka, ndetse no guhindura ishusho (data variable) ikoreshwa kuri buri gitekerezo. [2] Kuzigama mumurimo hamwe nubushobozi bugenda bwiyongera bwibikoresho bya digitale bivuze ko icapiro rya digitale rigeze aho rishobora guhuza cyangwa gusimbuza ubushobozi bwa tekinoroji ya offset yo gukora ibicuruzwa binini byandika impapuro ibihumbi byinshi ku giciro gito.

Itandukaniro rinini hagati yo gucapa hakoreshejwe uburyo bwa gakondo hamwe nuburyo gakondo nka lithographie, flexografiya, gravure, cyangwa inyuguti zandika ni uko nta mpamvu yo gusimbuza ibyapa byacapishijwe mu icapiro rya digitale, mu gihe mu icapiro ryerekana ibyapa bisimburwa inshuro nyinshi. Ibi bivamo igihe cyihuta cyo guhinduka nigiciro gito mugihe ukoresheje icapiro rya digitale, ariko mubisanzwe gutakaza ibintu byiza-shusho birambuye kubikorwa byinshi byubucuruzi byandika. Uburyo buzwi cyane harimo printer ya inkjet cyangwa laser ibika pigment cyangwa toner kubintu byinshi bitandukanye birimo impapuro, impapuro zifoto, canvas, ikirahure, ibyuma, marble, nibindi bintu.

Mubikorwa byinshi, wino cyangwa toner ntabwo byinjira muri substrate, kimwe na wino isanzwe, ariko ikora urwego ruto cyane hejuru yubutaka bushobora kwongerwaho na substrate ukoresheje amazi ya fuser hamwe nubushyuhe (toner) cyangwa UV inzira yo gukiza (wino).

Mu icapiro rya digitale, ishusho yoherejwe muburyo butaziguye kuri printer ukoresheje dosiye ya digitale nka PDF hamwe niziva muri software ishushanya nka Illustrator na InDesign. Ibi bivanaho gukenera isahani yo gucapa, ikoreshwa mugucapisha offset, ishobora kuzigama amafaranga nigihe.

Hatabayeho gukenera gukora isahani, icapiro rya digitale ryazanye ibihe byihuta no gucapa kubisabwa. Aho kugirango ucapishe binini, byateganijwe mbere yo kwiruka, ibyifuzo birashobora gukorwa kuri bike nkicapiro rimwe. Mugihe icapiro rya offset riracyakunze kuvamo icapiro ryiza ryiza, uburyo bwa digitale burimo gukorwa kuburyo bwihuse kugirango ubuziranenge bugende neza kandi buke.
