A good inkjet print requires preparation of the image for printing

Most importantly, the process is hand-guided; rather than queuing
up a bunch of images and running a script to print them out automatically.
And the same argument applies to making the color separations and plates, loading the plates, paper, and ink into a 4, 6, or 8 color Heidelberg press, registering the plates, and running-off a couple thousand copies. The printer does it by "hand" but then the press takes over.
