What do I include in a Printing quote request?

  1. Start by letting printers know what you want from the finished product. For instance, is it a flyer or leaflet for a letter box drop, or a catalogue to send to your top customers.
  2. Let printers know the quantity you need.
  3. Let printers know what size the finished product should be.
  4. Do you want black and white, one colour or many colours? Printing quotes for black and white are much cheaper than for full colour.
  5. Provide details of when and where you need the product to be delivered. Printing quotes for urgent jobs tend to be more expensive.
  6. Let them know if you need design services or if you already have a graphic designer. Commercial printing companies often have in-house graphic designers or can negotiate a good rate on design for you.

Commercial Printing | Terminology

Printers may ask about what "stock" you would like them to use. "Stock" is just the type of fabric or material, usually paper or card, that you want the finished product to be printed on. Stock is measured in grams per square metre (gsm).

They may also want to know whether you want a gloss or a matt finish, or if you want an extra layer of protection by applying a celloglaze coating, for instance. Finishes like this can help protect the printed material and can be useful if you want the finished product to stay in good condition over time.

Binding is important, too. Catalogues or magazines can be saddle-stitched, which basically means that they are folded over and secured down the folded edge with staples or thread. Otherwise, they can be perfect bound, where the pages are bound with a spine (like most thicker magazines) or even ring-bound. The binding you choose can affect the final costs.

Business Cards & StationeryBusiness Card printing


How much does printing business cards cost?

The average cost per hour for printing business cards is $54, while the total average cost of printing business cards and stationery is $781. Of course the total cost can yo-yo up and down depending on if you're wanting colour or foil accenting, if you're after double-sided printing, the number you require and the quality of paper (to gloss or not to gloss?) you need. 


What extra fees should I look out for?

When printing business cards, make sure you know exactly how many cards you need as you may be quoted a certain amount for a bulk-run, and any additional cards could cost you a stack more. You're being charged for the printing only, not the artwork so make sure your design is complete and a hi-resolution file. If you're wanting a proof sent out out to you prior to printing (for a colour check etc) this will normally attract an additional fee.

Brochures & FlyersBrochure printing process


What should I look for in a brochure printing business?

There are many standard inclusions that make up a flyer & brochure printing quote, and there are many printing businesses that consider basic customer service requests as "optional extras". For the best result select a business that promises fast turn around, unlimited PDF proofs/mock ups and where possible free delivery. Some printing businesses will also offer to review your brochure printing project and suggest enhancements. 


What style should I opt for?

A fold-out technique works well for smaller projects, however if your brochure is more than a few pages, you might want to consider saddle-stitching. Securing pages through the centre folds with wire staples or stitches, saddle-stitching is one of the most efficient and economical binding techniques. The number of pages that can be "stitched" depends on the thickness of the stock (paper, card etc). Larger projects can be perfect bound for a glossy magazine effect.

Screen PrintingScreen printing process


What does a screen printer do?

One of the oldest forms of printing, screen printing is a method that uses woven mesh and an ink-blocking stencil, although it has now progressed into the digital world, with printing directly onto garments like t-shirts. This effective technique is also extremely cost-efficient, with multiple copies produced quickly and easily by a screen printing press.


How do I find a screen printer?

Through ServiceSeeking.com.au of course! We have lots of talented screen printers standing by waiting to quote. When listing your job make sure you include whether you have the garments to print on, or if you want the screen printer to supply them. Most screen printers are happy to provide basic t-shirts and polos for an additional fee. Screen printers will also normally charge more for artwork design and delivery.
