Printer Specs
When preparing artwork to send it to a printer we all want to get it right first time. Specifications required vary from printer to printer, so for your convenience we've prepared a list below of some of our most common printers so you can check the artwork you are preparing is correct for the printer the job is being sent to when preparing artwork for us.
Please be aware that these specs are subject to change and may or may not be the most up to date. If unsure, we encourage you to call us, or the printer direct.
