Core Service Areas

1) General Printing (Offset & Digital)

  • Offset printing with six-color capability and in-line aqueous coating for color-critical, high-volume runs. Raised printing & thermography available.
  • Digital printing for on-demand, short-run, and variable data personalization-print 1 to many, reduce inventory risk, and add spot/flood coatings for impact.
  • Typical applications: brochures, postcards, marketing collateral, envelopes, notebooks, books, letterhead, business cards, labels/stickers.

2) Bindery & Finishing

Saddle stitching, perfect binding (PUR), mechanical binds, case binding, die cutting, lamination, fugitive gluing, kitting & hand assembly-so your piece looks and performs its best.

3) Direct Mail & Mailing

End-to-end direct mail marketing-printing, imaging, data management, addressing, and entry; ideal for acquisition, renewals, events, fundraising, political, and PR. USPS-integrated workflows help control cost and delivery. Mailing logistics: data processing, NCOA, IMB, QR codes, live stamping, tracking, commingling, plus UPS/FedEx integration.

4) Fulfillment & Inventory

Manage printed inventory or print on-demand. Our warehouse + secure cloud platform lets you store, order, distribute, share, and track documents and assets with real-time data and automated alerts.

How to Start a Project (Step-by-Step)

  1. Scope & goals: Share audience, quantity range, due date, and success metrics.
  2. Choose format & method: We’ll recommend offset vs. digital based on run size, color needs, and personalization.
  3. File prep & proofing: Upload print-ready PDFs; we’ll provide soft/hard proof options as needed.
  4. Production & finishing: Press, bind/finish, and QA.
  5. Mailing or fulfillment: Enter into USPS or ship to locations; enable inventory and reorders as needed.

Tip: Use our client templates and setup guides to get files right the first time (bleeds, resolution, sizing).

File Preparation Essentials (Quick Checklist)

  • Document size & bleed: Match trim; include bleeds on all sides.
  • Color & resolution: CMYK or specified spot colors; 300 dpi images minimum.
  • Fonts & links: Embed or outline fonts; package linked assets if requested.
  • Variable data (if applicable): Provide a clean data file with field names and test records.
  • Mailing compliance: For direct mail, reserve clear zones for barcodes/addresses per USPS specs.

Can you help reduce postage and waste? Our USPS-integrated workflows include data hygiene (NCOA, dedupe), commingling, and tracking to improve deliverability and reduce costs.

When should I choose offset vs. digital? Use offset for color-critical, higher-volume runs; digital for short runs, on-demand, or personalized projects. We often blend both to optimize cost, speed, and quality.
