Some of the larger printing shops have shortened the printing time and increased production by introducing new lines of equipment, such as electronic color separation apparatus, IBM computer typewriters, high speed automatic 4-color printing presses, photogravure cameras, proof printing and letter-casting equipment.
而事實上，一些較具規模的大型彩色印刷廠所具備的電子分色機、IBM 電腦打字機、高速自動四色印刷機、大照相機、打樣機、磨版機、鑄字機等，確已使印刷時間縮短、產量增加，而產品更是生動、自然、逼真。
