Talking about the problem of paper printing

1. Stick to paper that is a multiple of 8-1/2x11 inches. This is a standard size. If you deviate from this size, you will need to pay more for the job.

2. Use the original paper in the printing factory. Printing houses usually store several commonly used papers in their own factories. Choosing their existing papers will save you a lot of time and money.

3, reduce the weight of paper. The heavier the paper is, the higher the price.

4. Reduce the size of the cut - even if only reduced by 1/4 inch, it is possible to have a significant impression on the total cost of some jobs. When in doubt, consult your printing house.

5. Merge jobs. By planning ahead, you can print multiple jobs on the same paper.

6, only print their own needs, reduce waste.

7, choose digital printing. Digital printing can print exactly what you want - even if only one. Most of today's printing companies have digital printing equipment or have a partnership with another company that can do digital printing.

8, reduce the number of pages.

9. Transfer all information that can be transmitted on the Internet to the Internet.

10, to avoid bleeding. If you want to keep the bleeding, the printer must first print the ink on the entire page, and then cut off the printed edge, which will cost more.

11, for a lower quality paper.

12. Ask the printer for proofs that are printed on paper that is of a lower grade than you want and compare their printing effects.

13: If you use paper No. 1 instead of top paper, you can save about 12% of the cost; if you use No. 2 paper instead of top paper, you can save 24% of the cost.

14. To understand the inflection point of price, the more paper you buy, the cheaper the price you get.

15, do not be too picky, first to the printing factory to find out what kind of paper they are using. If you also choose this type of paper, you can save a lot of job preparation time, thus achieving cost savings.

16, to know that open folding cartons will also waste your cost. If you need to use a special kind of paper, even if the number of prints is very small, the printer has to open a full box of paper for your job. As a result, you will have to pay an extra fee, because the printing plant will purchase the full-size specialty paper for you.
