TPS prides itself on always being on the leading edge of technology. For example, it was the first book manufacturer in the world to install an inkjet web press for interior book production in 2001, replacing its offset equipment. In 2009 
it replaced its initial inkjet web press with a new press for full-color, digital, inkjet-based web printing and later added a second inkjet press for monochrome-only work. Always striving to provide better quality, the company replaced its color inkjet press in 2019 with a Canon ProStream 1000 series press because “we needed a press that would meet or exceed our customers’ expectations,” Rick says. “The ProStream consistently produces an image quality that is as good as anything’s going to be as far as the end user is concerned.” Read more here: case study.

Total Printing Systems and Hybrid Global Publishing are pleased to announce their partnership to bring worldwide distribution to authors and publishers of all sizes beginning February 1, 2019.
As a short-run book manufacturer, Total Printing Systems has many clients that are in need of distribution for their publications. “In order to add distribution to our many offerings, TPS needed an experienced collaborator to guide our clients through the intricacies of the industry. Our partnership with Hybrid Global Publishing was cemented due to the more than 30 years of publishing experience of HGP owner Karen Strauss. I feel confident our clients that rely on us for book manufacturing can now count on us for their distribution needs as well as superior guidance on the subject.” states Rick Lindemann, President of Total Printing Systems. Through the distribution program, clients will have truly worldwide access to 39,000 brick and mortar and online retailers, wholesalers, libraries, schools, and universities.
In the new collaboration between TPS and Hybrid Global Publishing, the author will have the best of both worlds. Today, the most important thing any author needs to know about distribution is that more than half of all book sales take place online via POD which is how HGP will help. However when an author needs copies printed for a conference, an event or a bulk sale they can use TPS to fulfill those needs.
The distribution services include:
Tier One – multiple titles:
Tier Two – single title:
Total Printing Systems is committed to continuous improvement of its services and equipment to best serve clients. The addition of distribution will be a tremendous benefit to authors and publishers.
