Can I print on different types of paper or materials?

Yes, we offer a diverse selection of papers and materials for printing, including various weights, finishes (glossy, matte), and specialty papers. We can guide you in choosing the most suitable option for your project.

What is the difference between digital printing and offset printing?

Digital printing is ideal for short-run projects with quick turnaround times, while offset printing is more cost-effective for large print runs. Offset printing offers higher colour accuracy and quality, making it suitable for projects with specific colour requirements.

Can I print in black and white or colour?

Absolutely! Our printing services cover both black and white and full-colour printing. We can advise you on the best option based on your design and budget.

What resolution should my images be for high-quality printing?

For optimal results, we recommend using images with a resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch) at the actual print size. This ensures sharp and clear prints.

How long does it take to get something printed?

The turnaround time for your print project depends on its complexity, quantity, and the printing method chosen. We strive to provide efficient services and can provide you with an estimated timeframe based on your specific project.

Can I print custom sizes or shapes?

Yes, we can accommodate custom sizes and shapes for your printing needs. Our team can discuss the possibilities and provide guidance on the best approach to achieve your desired outcome.

Can I print on both sides of the paper?

Absolutely! We offer double-sided printing for various print materials, including brochures, flyers, and business cards. Just let us know your requirements.
