custom orders do not fit in to our regular schedule. all custom orders will have their turnaround times advised before production begins.

what are your artwork requirements?

document colors

  • use cmyk color mode to prepare your files, not rgb.
  • set the font color to 100% k instead of 4c for black text.
  • enter the desired pantone or hks colors in to the color channel when using special colors
  • instructions for special colors: create areas with another process color (cmyk) overlaying a special color using knockout instead of overprinting. special colors over a cmyk color should be created using knockout.
  • use greyscale color mode when ordering a greyscale item.
  • create grey areas in shades of black to ensure a perfect print result in greyscale.

files in original size

  • create your files for print in their original size (the final trim size).
  • artwork that is too small or too large has to be scaled to the correct print size, usually without edge trimming (bleed). this results in a reduced quality final result.

the right trim/bleed

  • always add trim/bleed to your files to allow leeway for cutting differences in production.
  • our standard trim allowance is 2mm.
  • envelopes: 1mm
  • advertising technology products, presentation folders, packaging & calendars: 3mm.
  • textile stretcher frames: 15mm.

safety margin

  • for best results, keep all of your important content at least 3mm away from the edge of the finished size.
  • keep at least 20mm away from the binding edge on spiral bound calendars or brochures.
  • make sure background pictures, colors and layouts do extend in to the bleed area to prevent white lines as a result of cutting tolerances.

page numbers

  • check all of your superfluous pages have been deleted.
  • for multi-page files, create each page in sequential order, starting with page 1 (front page) and continuing on until the last page (back page).

image resolutions

  • graphics, images & pictures should be 250 dpi.
  • color images & greyscales – 250 dpi.
  • line artwork (drawings & text in a small font size) – 1.200 dpi.
  • advertising technology & ad posters with text – 150 dpi.
  • advertising technology products – 72 dpi.

line weights

  • all lines should be at least 0.22 pt.
  • we automatically increase lines that are too thin to a printable weight (except lines that are set to exactly 0 pt).
  • don’t use borders as a way to define layouts as due to mechanical tolerances these might be cut into and show up on the final product.

file formats

  • save your files in print ready, vector file formats such as pdf, eps, ai, ps, jpg, tif.
  • reduce all layers in to a single, flat, background layer.

embedded fonts & paths

  • convert all of your fonts & paths to outlines to prevent printing problems (or if we do not have the exact font on our systems).
  • allow sufficient contrast between font colors and background colors.

are you an eco-friendly printer?

here at 1800-printing we understand the importance of reducing our carbon footprint; mother nature is always on our minds. we provide the widest selection of eco-friendly and recycled material printing materials in new york.

our recycled paper is pefc certified, and we use soy inks in our printing process. we’ve got you covered with everything from recycled business cards to brochures and more! in fact, we currently use recycled card stock as standard.

the printing sector has traditionally had a negative reputation when it comes to environmental stewardship, with wasteful paper handling, excessive electricity and water use, and volatile chemicals that result in toxic waste. at 1800-printing, we try to put our planet first, and one way we achieve so is through our environmental responsibility plan.

this is how 1800-printing is making a difference:

  • using soy inks
  • using recycled paper stocks as standard
  • printing techniques like duplexing which reduce paper use
  • modern machines which drastically reduce power consumption
  • elimination of toxic and volatile chemicals
  • alcohol-free printing presses
  • we recycle redundant machines and computer parts
  • we recycle our printing plates, press blankets, bottles, cans & containers

what file formats do you accept?

tif, jpg, pdf, ai and eps are our preferred file formats.

we’ve discovered that reducing the prepress process allows us to pass on significant cost savings to our clients. our prepress requirements also allow us to avoid frequent errors in digital artwork preparation for print, such as font embedding and unlinked pictures. we ask that all files provided for printing be in industry standard formats to ensure quality. we need formats that aren’t reliant on the application, fonts, or other design components utilized to make the piece. the following file types are accepted:

quark, pagemaker, corel draw, and other similar files can be accepted if they are converted to industry standard graphic formats like tif, jpg, or pdf.

what is trim & do my files need it?

trim
we print your files at a slightly larger size so that there are no white borders when we cut the prints off of the sheet. your background/images will spill out to the edge if you do this.

safety
there is a margin of error known as the safety when your prints are trimmed down. we require a 1/4″ of safety to prevent all vital information from being cut off. on the top, bottom, left, and right, that’s 1/8″. if you have any issues about measurements, download the template for the exact product you’re making to ensure proper trim and safety.

who do you ship with?

we use ups and fedex for shipping out your orders. please note that both carriers will not ship to a p.o. box. if you have any questions regarding shipping please feel free to contact us.

once your order has shipped we will send you a confirmation email and you can also login to the my account page and find your tracking info there as well.

what areas do you service in nyc?

we ship nationwide with ups! but as new yorkers, we of course service the entire nyc area including the following neighborhoods.

  1. Loubna Amer Verified Buyer

    The site is full of inspiration – to make the choice interesting, if not difficult, lol. Problems can be answered quickly through live chat. My free business cards look great and are printed on a high quality postcard. Highly recommended.

  2. Amy Louise Byers-Barrett Verified Buyer

    Good cards! Great price!

  3. David Brook Verified Buyer

    Great service and very fast and cheap!

  4. Mr Courtney Verified Buyer

    I ordered a set of business cards from 1800 Printing because of its competitive price. The cards arrived quickly and were well printed. My only concern was that the map view on your website showed a white background and, when the map arrived, it had a yellowish background. As I included a copy of my logo on a card with a white background and kept it, it didn’t look good. I contacted them about it and they were very helpful in solving the problem.

  5. FluffyDuff Verified Buyer

    We ordered 50 free business cards (it was only necessary to pay for delivery), they came quickly and are decorated the same way on the internet. Very happy. I would use them again!

  6. Chris Sheldrick Verified Buyer

    Great service! the business cards look super professional and the design process was so easy. I will definitely order regularly! order number 362607

  7. Becca Verified Buyer

    The first time I order 1800’s Polygraphy and it definitely won’t be the last! The quality of the business cards I ordered is fantastic and they were delivered very quickly! Thanks.

  8. Sara Graham Verified Buyer

    Excellent – very fast and decent card

  9. Time and Space Toys Verified Buyer

    I hadn’t used 1800 Printing before and I wasn’t sure about them. I’ve always used vista print and zazzle. I needed a lot of labels and the price quoted by both companies mentioned was 3x higher (if not more). I took a chance and placed an order for 1800 Printing. I received my labels today and they are incredible. I placed my order at 1 am on Friday morning and received it on Monday. Few companies convinced me enough to leave a comment, but you did. You get better print and gloss perspectives. I will now be your regular customer. I recommend you to everyone. Thanks to everyone at 1800 Printing for such an amazing job, you really made my day !!!

  16. Super efficiency. Verified Buyer

    Great service, love cards, thank you

  17. Leah Holloway Verified Buyer

    Absolutely fantastic. I am very impressed to be a frequent customer of vistaprint. I was very skeptical, but I was wrong, I would never go to another place of such good quality for such a cheap price ref. 156913

  18. edyta Verified Buyer

    Fast, efficient and very good value. I ordered some business cards online about four days ago and arrived today. Very happy. Thanks.

  19. Pagan Nana (Paganana) Verified Buyer

    I just love how they look. Quality in order nº 332907

  20. Tanjida Nipa Verified Buyer

    They are great! They have great customer service and their products are of the highest quality. Recently, another company disappointed me when I ordered laptops more than a month ago, but they didn’t come, I talked to them and I still haven’t heard anything. I needed a last minute replacement and I remembered to order them before 1800 Printing, so I ordered several notebooks and they arrived so quickly that I was so impressed and they are absolutely perfect! I’ve ordered maps of them before. I would definitely recommend 1800 Printing. 🙂
