Colonial Printing

Online printing has come a long way, and today it is often a superior choice for getting printing done. I still remember when you were restricted to choosing printers in your local area to get offset printing done. Those days are long gone, with the Internet fast becoming a good choice for designers wanting quick, quality printing performed at good prices. Some printers I have heard good things about include Uprinting and Printplace. They both offer plenty of coupons you can use when trying them out. (I will include links to Printplace and Uprinting coupons at the end of this article).

So what differentiates a good online printer from a bad one? There are several things I look for, which I will discuss in detail below.

One of the first things I check is that a printer will offer some sort of guarantee on the quality and price of their work. To me, guarantees are a sign that the printer stands by the work they do. Take Uprinting, for example. It offers a price guarantee on all orders, which shows how dedicated it is to providing low prices. Printplace goes even farther than that and seems to guarantee everything. They not only have a price guarantee, but a satisfaction guarantee and even a quality guarantee as well.

As you might imagine, good printers also focus on quick turnaround, and many offer expedited order fulfillment. For example, Printplace and Uprinting offer options for same day or one-day turnaround. Look for a shop that can handle many different jobs, not just brochures or business cards. A high quality printer will have no issues printing just about anything.

The last criterion I use is whether the printer offers low prices. There are two things I look for in this regard. The first is some sort of low price or price match guarantee, as mentioned earlier. In addition, I look for coupons or other specials. I have found both Uprinting as well as Printplace coupons that offer everything from discounted pricing to free shipping. This is icing on the cake that allows you to save some extra money, which can be important in today’s economy.
