Formax Printing Solutions powered by Safeguard

I've printed my comics through 5 different offset printing places before Formax Printing, and have found Formax Printing to be the best of them all! Here are some points that make Formax Printing great... I just recently completed my first printing project with Formax Printing and would highly recommend them to others. The comics arrived quickly within a few weeks of the order being made. And all the comics are sealed in plastic, which was a big surprise. They never offered or mentioned that they would be doing this. Other printers would charge extra for something like this. The prices were amazingly low! 1000 prints of my 24-page comic book was only $1,076.52, including shipping costs. This price was lower than prices that I was offered anywhere else, including China printers! (The only one that had a price similar to theirs was a printer in South Korea that only did wireless transfer payments, which I did not like.) Such a low price made initially skeptical that the US printer could rival foreign printers in price and quality with all the taxes and fees that are often with USA printing services. Usually they are more than double the price of printing services overseas. But I am glad I gave them a try! The quality was some of the best I've seen. Some printers print fairly dark, even after making the required printing adjustments, but the colors of are surprisingly bright. The wasn't as glossy as the other printers I've printed with, but I don't think that is a bad thing. It feels more like paper from children's book than the normal glossy magazine type of print that I normally get. Communication is amazingly good. I've dwelt with printers in the past where I don't hear from them for weeks or months, causing me to worry that everything might not be okay with my print order. But communication with Formax Printing is excellent. Keith would call me to check with me on my requirements of the comic book project, which was great. I also would almost daily alerts about the progress of the print. A Formax Printing is also very transparent on their prices. With other printing places, I had to inquire about shipping costs and additional fees, whereas Keith always included all the information I needed with each quote. With their low prices, they obviously have nothing to hide! I will be doing business with Formax Printing again (very soon) and will be recommending them to other comic book creators.

I just completed my first printing project with Formax Printing and would confidently recommend them to others. Two ways they stood out from other printers who I received quotes from were their customer service and transparency. Keith would call me to ensure that he understood my requirements through each stage of the project so that he could provide me with correct information. And each of his quotes always included the complete out-of-pocket costs to my company. In comparison, I had to follow up with other companies to inquire about shipping costs and additional fees, whereas Keith always included all the information I needed with each quote. Lastly, I appreciated Keith's willingness to spend time with me brainstorming ideas on how to best go about completing my project, since this was my first time doing this particular type of printing. I will be doing business with Formax Printing again and also recommending them to my clients.
