Web2Print is a category of platforms that enable the online ordering, customization, and management of print products. These solutions connect customers to print production through web interfaces, handling everything from design and ordering to prepress automation and fulfillment.
There is no functional difference between web2print, web to print and web-to-print; they are interchangeable terms for the same technology that allows users to order, customize, and print materials online.
