TICAB PRINT TPS - Industrial Packaging Printer That Says Yes to Small Orders
Condition: New | Year: 2026 | Manufacturer: TICAB PRINT, Poland | Category: Industrial digital printer / packaging printing equipment
A morning in a packaging workshop, before and after
Before TPS: A client calls asking for 80 custom-printed paper bags for a product launch next week. You do the math — a new cliché, press setup, minimum run of several thousand — and the order doesn't make sense at that volume. You quote a price the client won't pay, or you say no.
With TPS: The same call comes in. You open the design file, load it into the printer, and 80 bags are printed and ready the same day — at a per-unit cost that still leaves you a margin.
That's the gap the TICAB PRINT TPS industrial packaging printer was built to close.
Who this machine is for
The TPS is an industrial CMYK inkjet printer aimed squarely at the everyday frustrations of:
• Packaging manufacturers who lose small-batch clients to minimum order requirements
• Paper bag and box producers who need to offer personalisation without a full flexographic or offset setup
• Print-on-demand and made-to-order businesses that can't plan production around a forecast
• Contract printers and private-label suppliers tired of outsourcing short runs to a third party at a reduced margin
What actually changes for your business
Instead of listing specs first, here's what the TPS removes from your day-to-day:
The problem you deal with today What the TPS does about it
Minimum order quantities force you to decline small jobs Digital, plate-free printing — quote and print from 1 piece
Every new cliché or plate is a cost you eat before the job even starts No plates, clichés or press moulds — print straight from a digital file
Short-run and custom orders barely break even Cost per print from as little as €0.01/unit
You outsource urgent or small jobs to a third-party printer Bring short-run packaging printing in-house and keep the margin
Pre-printed stock sits in the warehouse waiting for buyers Print on demand, against confirmed orders, not forecasts
Switching jobs means re-tooling the press Change designs digitally — no mechanical changeover
