Digital: Our standard printing process is a digital, 4-color process printing method. This process uses cyan, magenta, yellow and black inks to provide a great range of colors and eliminates the need to charge extra fees for set up or to match colors. All PMS colors printed will be simulated using the CMYK process. We will make every effort to match PMS colors as closely as possible, however, perfect color matches cannot be guaranteed.
Screen Printing: We also offer screen printing as an option. This method also offers a great range of colors and a glossy finish to the final product. Pricing is calculated per color, may require extra fees, and will necessitate a longer turn time. If this method is desired, please ask for your special quote.
Other: Other methods of printing may be used depending on size of order, colors required, and need date. If necessary, these options will be discussed during the quoting process and determined before the order is placed.
