Abstract

Embodiments of the invention use inkjet printing, which is a non-contact printing system, to print continuously on Z-fold materials without image quality defect. The Z-fold material is created first and the material is then printed (decorated) afterward. Embodiments of the invention print on the flat sheet of Z-fold material prior to being cut, folded, glued, and otherwise formed into a box. Accordingly, a box produced using the invention can have a full coverage print, rather than being printed after box formation, where decoration is limited to one area/surface of the box.
