Most self-published books do not fail because printing is impossible. They fail because the author did not define the reader, the promise, the packaging, or the sales path.
A book is an intellectual product. It needs positioning, a clear title, a strong cover direction, a credible sample, and a way for readers to discover and buy it.
Publishing becomes easier when the author builds a system: manuscript, edition plan, product page, payment flow, delivery, follow-up, and related offers.
