In House Typesetting and Content Creation
Our customers can complete pre-production on projects in a variety of ways. In addition to working with us on typesetting or creating the document themselves, university departments may also work with University Communications and Marketing which offers a variety of design, production, editorial and marketing services. To adhere to university policy 488, all university departments preparing material for an external audience must first contact UC&M.
Printing Services can work with your existing file to correct typos, print invitations and envelopes, and more. These smaller, but important jobs, are our specialty.
If you have supplied your job on a disk and it needs changes before printing, we can take care of that with our fully featured graphic workstation PC loaded with most of the latest software. We can add logos, scan and place photos and art, fix setup and position problems, as well as having the capabilities of taking on larger need now projects from scratch. Contact Printing Services for more information on this exciting service.
Printing Services is capable of folding, binding, stapling, scoring, perforating, collating, gathering, shrink wrapping, cutting, paper padding and drilling your jobs. We offer comb, tape and staple binding. Tape and staple binding can be done in-line on the Docutech or off-line by hand. Comb binding utilizes a special machine that punches the holes and adds the combs. Other binding choices are available. If you have a special need let us know. We can do what you want to finish your project.
Job Quoting, Estimating and Handling of High Volume Bidding and Vendor Relations
If you have a big job and you are not sure what the cost will be, we can provide you with a free estimate or a quote to lock in a price. We can give you the numbers the same day you submit your request for an estimate or quote. For larger jobs or for jobs that will need to be sent to an outside vendor, please contact Kathryn Walters in Printing Services. We have a professional relationship with University approved vendors. Let us handle your project for seamless production flow. Our prices are well below our competition. If you find a lower price elsewhere, we will be happy to match their price.
Printing Services prints and stocks the majority of university approved forms. A list of available forms can be found at the Printing Services office. If you are in need of a particular form, simply fill out the Forms Requisition and submit it to Printing Services. We will fill your order while you wait, if necessary. Business cards and stationery are available through Printing Services also. Submit a Print Order Requisition and we will be happy to take care of it for you.
Too much rain or snow? Give us a call. Printing Services will be happy to pick up your order to print. We deliver most jobs unless specified by the customer. If you are having a job delivered, please remember to supply the building and room number, as well as the name of the person to whom we are delivering. A signature is required upon receipt.
