How Long Are Printing Runs for Standard MTG Sets?
The length of a printing run for a standard Magic The Gathering set can vary, but typically Wizards of the Coast keeps sets available for a period that aligns with its Standard rotation. This usually means a set is actively printed and distributed for around 18 to 24 months before it's phased out for new content. So, if you're eyeing a current set, you've got about a year and a half to two years to grab it while it's readily available.

Depends on demand really. If a set is hot, Wizards will keep those printers busy to meet demand. But usually, you're looking at 18-24 months of printing before they move on.
Shorter than you'd hope if your favorite card gets popular! But officially, 18-24 months give or take.
