When you organise a print project using the services provided by Colour Print, you can draw on the expertise of our printers to ensure that you get the result you are expecting. Print specifications are the information that a client gives a printer to indicate how the finished article should look. It is often helpful to discuss the various options with an experienced printer.
In a perfect scenario: the client has a complete vision of how they want their final project to look and a knowledge of printing terminology. They can use specifications to convey details to the printer that will achieve their aims. In reality, a client may have an incomplete vision or not be aware how best to communicate it. In these cases, we can guide you through the various options available.
What information needs to be specified?

On top of this, we’ll need information about any varnishing, binding or finishing options that you would like us to provide.
