“DynamicsPrint® with IMP is the heart of our planning estimations and imposition systems.
Estimating has become an important science. Our young estimators can deliver accurate plans just as an experienced estimator, with loads of experience, would.”

“The reason we chose DP was because it’s an industry solution which solves many of the problems we had in the standard Microsoft Dynamics setup. Also, there was demand from the management to have final costing, which was also a major challenge in the standard Dynamics solution.
DynamicsPrint® also helps us greatly with scheduling and shop floor management. The data gathered gives us great insights, and results in a much more cost-efficient production.”
Jochem Sants, Project Manager

“The professional and highly skilled DynamicsPrint® team led the implementation to develop the expertise internally at DCM with a team of Subject Matter Experts from each of the specialized print production areas. DynamicsPrint’s expertise regarding the system and the industry was instrumental to ensuring the configurations were done properly. As this is a highly configurable solution, the approach and implementation was very well structured and ensured that the team worked from the basic setups to the more complex setups with a pace that was manageable and retainable.
DynamicsPrint® adjusted the resource requirements to accommodate both technical and functional areas of expertise as needed throughout the project, providing best practice directives to ensure that the proper approach was being followed.”

“I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with DynamicsPrint® and the support you have given KP San Leandro since our launch. The seemingly endless set of tools available really help us run and improve our business.
The visibility into job statuses, P&L, and the ability to create and manage cues that give our team a personalized look into their own area of responsibility have become essential to our business model. I can’t even imagine going back to our old system. Thanks to the DynamicsPrint® team for all your help and support.”

The printing industry is entering a new era — one shaped by artificial intelligence. For print service providers (PSPs), AI isn’t just hype; it’s a tool with the power to transform quoting, job routing, predictive analytics, and customer engagement. As discussed in a recent webinar with Ryan McAbee, Pat McGrew, and Nick Benkovich, embracing AI is the difference between leading and lagging.
How AI Creates Value for PSPs
AI, particularly tools like GPT, can save PSPs weeks of manual effort. Whether optimizing a website for SEO, responding faster to RFQs, or guiding sales strategy, AI shortens cycles and boosts accuracy.
Nick Benkovich of eProductivity Software noted that AI helps wherever inefficiencies exist: “Maybe it’s not manufacturing — you’re losing business on slow quoting or low lead gen. AI can help there too.”
Pat McGrew added that even identifying friction points can be automated. “Ask a licensed GPT to help you define and solve bottlenecks. You’ll end up multiple steps ahead — if you’re brave enough to look.”
Use Cases Already Driving Success
Predictive analytics for sales and inventory
AI-driven quoting and estimation
Color management and customer service insights
Automation of manual reporting tasks
Companies using AI thoughtfully are improving time-to-quote, reducing error rates, and freeing teams for higher-value tasks.
Why Caution Still Matters
AI is not a silver bullet. The panel warned against:
AI hallucinations: False or misleading outputs must be human-validated
Data security risks: Avoid uploading sensitive info to unlicensed tools
Overreliance: AI requires training, validation, and human oversight
McAbee stressed the need for internal policies and licensed platforms to avoid compliance or IP issues.
A Tool — Not a Panacea
AI won’t fix a broken process alone. As McGrew said, “It doesn’t cure the common cold.” True transformation comes from testing, validating, and integrating AI into real workflows.
As Benkovich concluded, “It’s like sports. You have to train to get results. You don’t get great by default.”
