There are many places where individuals can print small items, such as a letter or a single document. Larger jobs typically require a trip to a dedicated print shop or service. Some options to consider include:
Print shops
Office supply stores
Libraries
Business centers
Banks
Shipping centers
Individuals who have only simple documents to print might be able to use a home printer. For specialized projects and higher-volume printing, as well as anything that needs a professional appearance, working with a print shop is usually the best option. Print shops utilize printers and print supplies that produce higher-quality products than home printers can achieve.
Print shops may offer more than just basic document printing. Some of these services include:
Graphic design: Creating documents, including the placement of words, logos, and pictures
Desktop publishing: Printing basic documents, such as letters, reports, and resumes
Copy and scan services: Making copies of documents already printed or scanning them for digital use
Offset printing: Specialized printing of business cards, brochures, tags, pamphlets, medical forms, flyers, invitations, letterheads, handbooks, and similar projects
A print shop can make copies of wedding photos if the photos were taken by the person requesting the print job. Individuals who hire a photographer will need a copyright release if they want the print shop to produce copies of the photos. Some photographers won’t provide a release, so be sure to ask about this prior to hiring the photographer if reprints will be necessary.
The best printing method depends on the type of project. Some of the most common options include:
Digital printing: Uses digital controls to produce images on stationery, paper, or photo paper
Flexography: Uses flexible plates to produce letters, labels, packaging, and similar items
Letterpress: Uses raised letter stencils to transfer ink onto paper, greeting cards, business cards, and posters
Screen printing: Uses a silkscreen and squeegee to push paint through stenciled holes onto posters and textiles
Lino: Uses a scored template to produce mirror images for fine art printmaking
Gravure: Uses etched copper plates to print directly onto the paper to produce ultra-high-quality prints like magazine pages
RGB and CMYK are specialized color codes. RGB is used for digital media, and CMYK is used for printed media. The initials represent the primary colors used to produce other colors. RGB stands for red, green, and blue. CMYK stands for cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. Digital CMYK renderings produce the closest result to what the project will look like when printed.
