The following paper presents an evaluation of the future prospects of Print-on-Demand (PoD) technology and, correlated with it, of Direct Digital Print (DDP) systems for high production volumes. After a general introduction to the conditions of PoD production different parameters of the utility features, which are necessary for PoD documents, are discussed. Also a comparison of influences to the cost structure is given.
