We have a color schedule which allows us to print most colors twice a week.

Not typically. Because white is the default color of paper, it is simply recognized as the absence of any ink. However, when using colored paper, white ink may be used if any text or graphic requires it.

In order for the most accurate quote it is best if you can fax or email a sample to us.
If this is not an option for you, then you will need to know the following:
1) How many?
2) What kind of stock?
3) What are the ink color(s)?
4) Are there any screens?
5) Is there any registration between the colors?
6) Does this card have any bleeds, if so how many?

We can send you a fax, hard copy, or online proof, whichever is more convenient for you.

The Pantone Matching System (PMS) is a color reproduction standard in which colors all across the spectrum are each identified by a unique, independent number. The use of PMS allows us to precisely match colors and maintain color consistency throughout the printing process.

We are a wholesale supplier of business cards, letterhead, envelopes, announcements and other related materials (see our Products and Services page). We specialize in thermography (raised printing), and also offer flat printing (offset), foil stamping and embossing. Typesetting is included with every order.

In short, printers and monitors produce colors in different ways.

Monitors use the RGB (red, green, blue) color model, which usually supports a wider spectrum of colors. Printers use the CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) color model, which can reproduce most—but not all—of the colors in the RGB color model. Depending on the equipment used, CMYK generally matches 85–90% of the colors in the RGB model.

When a color is selected from the RGB model that is out of the range of the CMYK model, the application chooses what it thinks is the closest color that will match. Programs like Adobe Photoshop will allow you to choose which color will be replaced. Others may not.
