Stationery Printing Process
Ordering print-on-demand stationery is easy and provides you with the items you need, exactly when you need them. Here’s a look at the process from beginning to end.
- Reach out to your printing company. Before you begin the printing process, it’s always a good idea to discuss your ideas with your printing company. They can provide valuable advice that will save you time and money in the long term.
- Choose a stationery style and size. Some types of stationery such as executive letterhead are one standard size, whereas others such as greeting cards can be of various sizes. Choosing a size allows you to tailor your design for your chosen stationery’s exact dimensions.
- Consider your design. Your stationery design is one of the most important decisions you can make. After all, the design includes the message and image you convey to your recipients. Whether you’re creating the design in-house or would like your printing company to design your stationery for you, your design deserves your utmost attention and care.
- Decide on an initial quantity. The beauty of on-demand printing is that by printing a smaller number of copies at once, you save money and increase flexibility. Depending on your company and the amount of stationery you use, your initial print quantity could range from less than one hundred to a few thousand copies.
- Choose your finishing processes. Depending on which stationery items you’re ordering, you can choose finishing processes such as cutting, folding, and UV coating.
- State your delivery preferences. Would you like all copies shipped to company HQ? Are they being distributed to branches nationwide? Do you prefer ground or express shipping? Your printing company is happy to talk through all of your shipping options with you. At The Print Authority, we typically ship items for all items printed in-house within a few days.
- Receive and use your beautiful stationery. Now comes the fun part: using your custom print-on-demand stationery! Feel free to use it as quickly or slowly as you’d like, with the knowledge that another shipment is simply a phone call or email away.
- Order more copies when you need them. When you’d like another shipment of stationery, simply contact your printer and ask for more! The process is that simple. At The Print Authority, our turnaround time for digital print jobs is typically 2-3 business days, so you’ll get your stationery in the blink of an eye.
