Print as few as 10 business cards fast on uncoated 15pt Mohawk, 100% recycled card stock. This new recycled business card option is a perfect for urgent projects with rush same day, next day or standard 2-3 business day printing times.
Do you need business cards for multiple employees? Different locations? Multiple card designs for products or promotional campaigns? No problem, you can print as few as just 10 business cards and even multiple versions of art.
Digital Printing On Uncoated Card Stock We print these cards using a modern digital printing process that uses polymer based toner which sits on top of the stock without absorbing into the fibres. There will be a low sheen and an almost coated feel to printed areas.
If your design has full ink coverage or you prefer a true matte finish, we recommend choosing one of our offset printed options including 100% recycled 12pt and 24pt card stocks.
Pro Tip - Order a printed proof as part of your order so you can see your colours and feel the stock before the order is printed.
Heavy ink coverage can be problematic. When the cards rub together, the ink can rub off. Heavy coverage makes this more apparent. This can also be an issue for corner rounding, so we generally advise clients with heavy coverage not to round corners.
The minimum recommended text size is 6pt. With any small text, if grey use a black ink only version; if Black, use 100% K.
Anything thinner than a hairline stroke (0.25") - even at 100% K may look choppy when printed due to Indigo print resolution.
There is a screen to the Indigo print which customers should be aware of if they're comparing to traditional offset printing.
Try to keep all line weights for graphics over 0.5pt. Anything under that can break up in the texture of the stipple.
When working with small elements like lines or text, a simpler colour build is best to avoid misregistration. For example, 0/0/0/90 is a much better build than 20/20/20/40.
