Digitally printed postcards

Digitally printed postcards are as good as, and often even better than, traditionally printed offset postcards. The only real difference is that heat is used to apply a dry ink (commonly called toner) and the machines do not make very much noise.

Our digitally printed postcards always have a full colour front, and the back can be printed in full colour or black & white. Alternately, you can choose to have nothing appear on your digitally printed postcard.

The main reason you might choose to order some digitally printed postcards is the speed of production. Digitally printed postcards are normally printed in five full business days, and you can choose to have them printed even faster.

 

Offset printed postcards

Offset printed postcards (we call them Discount Priced Postcards) are offered in set quantities.

All offset printed postcards are printed on the front in full colour, and most of the offset printed postcards allow you to select a full colour or black & white back, or even leave the back entirely blank.

All offset printed postcards are offered in an un-coated format, and most also allow you to select a gloss celloglaze front.

Offset printed postcards can also have a magnet attached to the back, and you can also have a 5mm hole drilled into one of the corners, or at the centre of the short edge.

Multiple designs

You may upload up to ten different designs on each order, but each design must be ordered in equal quantities. So, you may order 1,000 of each of six designs (i.e.: for a total quantity of 6,000), but you may not order 1,000 of one design and 2,500 of another design.
