Espresso Book Machine

The Espresso Book Machine is owned by On Demand Books and is an instore machine that prints, binds, and trims perfect bound, black and white interior books, with a color cover, while the customer waits in the store. They can print color interior books but, due to quality concerns, we do not provide them with files to color interior books. Click the following link to view a short video about these machines.

While Espresso Book Machines are located around the world, Lightning Source can only provide digital files to the machines located in the countries we currently accept pricing for (US, UK, Europe, Australia, Canada, and Global Connect countries). For more information on Global Connect, click here

We are not able to supply digital files to the machines in places such as South Africa, Egypt, or United Arab Emirates, to name a few.
