Format, quantity, paper, inks and finishing all affect the cost of a print job. Before comparing prices, check that both quotations describe the same product.
To choose the right option, confirm the intended use, material and finished dimensions of the product.
Digital or Offset printing?
Either process may be suitable depending on the volume and product specification. There is no universal print-run threshold at which one system will always cost less than the other.
How to choose the paper
Compare paper weight, surface and opacity. The least expensive paper is not necessarily suitable for every printed product.
Unit price and total cost
A larger print run can reduce the unit price while increasing the total spend. Include delivery and finishing operations when comparing quotations.
How to request an accurate quote
Specify the finished size, quantity, paper, number of printed sides, folds, artwork versions and delivery requirements. A correctly prepared PDF also helps avoid extra revisions.
What else should you assess besides price?
Clear terms, artwork checks and compliance with the agreed specification are also part of the service. Our digital printing service in Madrid is suitable for many short and medium print runs.
Frequently asked questions
Is digital printing always cheaper?
No. The answer depends on the quantity, format, substrate, finishing and production requirements.
