How does the print visualiser work?

You tell Hal, our design assistant, what you want made. A priced brief fills in on the left as you answer, and the centre draws an approximate scale drawing of your print job beside a 1.80 m person. You can change your answers and see the budget move as you go. No 3D model is made on this page.

Is the budget on the print page a quote?

No. It is an indicative band, shown excluding VAT, so you can judge whether the project is in the right place before you commit anything. Final cost depends on size, finish, quantity, delivery and installation. The studio checks the figure and confirms it within two days.

What if the budget is higher than I planned for print job?

Type in the budget you have. The tool proposes the smallest changes to scope that bring the project to it, and applies them to what you see on screen. You get a lower specification for your money, not the same thing for less.

I already have a quote from someone else. Can you compare?

Yes. We do not match prices, but we will go through a written quote line by line against our scope so you can see what each includes. If you need to pay less, we offer a version at your figure with a clearly stated scope.

What happens after I finish with Hal?

You can save the project to an account, book a call, forward it to a colleague or download the pack. If you go ahead, drawings come first and you approve them in writing before anything is made.

What is large-format printing?

Printing at sizes beyond standard office paper, such as banners, posters, backdrops, window vinyl and wall graphics.

Can you print for retail windows and in-store?

Yes. Window vinyl, point-of-sale print, floor graphics and wall graphics are all part of Print Room.

Do you print lookbooks?

Yes. Lookbooks are designed and printed to the quality of the product they show.

Can print be combined with displays and stands?

Yes. Graphics for exhibition stands, displays and sets are produced to fit the structure, so they arrive ready to install.

How is print priced?

By size, material, quantity and finishing. Tell Hal what you need and the budget builds as an indicative band.

Can you supply and install?

Yes. Installation is a line in the brief where it is needed.

What can you print?

Posters, lookbooks, brochures and booklets, large-format graphics and signs, labels and stickers, fabric and soft signage, and point-of-sale print. If your job is something unusual, describe it to Hal and the brief follows.

What can it be printed on, and what finishes are there?

Paper or card, vinyl, rigid board and fabric. Finishes include wipe-clean or protected surfaces, foil, embossing and shaped cutting, and mounting or framing. If you are unsure, Hal can recommend a stock.

How is colour kept right?

Work is proofed and colour-matched to your brand before the run, so the colours on the stand match the colours on the box. Send print-ready artwork if you have it, and rough artwork or a brief if you do not.

Indoors or outdoors, and how long will it last?

Hal asks where it will be used, whether indoors, outdoors, on a vehicle, in retail or at an event, and how long it has to last, from a few weeks to a year or more. Those two answers decide the material and the finish.

How big can it be, and how many can you print?

From A4 or smaller up to more than three metres, and from under fifty to more than five thousand. Tell Hal both and the brief shows the effect of quantity.

How does a print job run from brief to delivery?

You tell Hal what you need and a priced brief builds. The job starts from a drawing you approve in writing, then it is proofed, made and finished. It is delivered to one address or several, here or abroad, and fitted by us or by someone else if you want it put up.

How long does large-format print take?

Days to weeks, depending on size, material and finishing, and longer if it has to be fitted. Tell Hal the date, and if print has to fit a stand or a shop, say which, because we plan it to arrive ready to fit.

Can you print on a vehicle or on fabric?

Yes. A vehicle and fabric or soft signage are both on the list of uses Hal asks about, and each is printed and finished for the surface.

What do I get at the end?

A priced brief, a drawing you approve, proofed and colour-matched print finished to size, delivered and fitted where you asked.
