Variable Format | Variable Page Count | Variable Signatures
MBO’s Variable Finishing Technology takes finishing farther than any other solution on the market. With the ability to reconfigure on-the-fly based off of job data from a code, MBO’s Fully Variable Book Block Production Solution gives printers the unprecedented capability to produce different digitally printed books in succession.
