Decoration & Print Performance

Placement is the main decoration decision. A centered or front-panel logo is the default, while adding a side hit, sleeve mark or back label gives a more finished, multi-position look. Because the 5318 decorates the same way on every unit, a program can run mixed placements and still keep results uniform across the order.
