When you place an online order with Fine Print, Inc., you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions.
Please make sure to read and understand all of our policies before placing an order.
Fine Print will submit prepress proofs along with original copy for the customer's review and approval. First set of proofs are complimentary, every additional set of proofs will be a charge $35.00 US Dollars. Corrections will be returned to Fine Print on a "master set" marked "0.K.," "0.K. With Corrections" or "Revised Proof Required" and signed by the client. Until the master set is received, no additional work can be performed. Fine Print will not be responsible for undetected production errors if:
Fine Print does not guarantee color matching or ink density on JPEG or PDF screen proofs. Screen proofs will predict text accuracy, image proportion and placement, but not color or density. Because of differences in equipment, paper, inks, and other conditions between color proofing and production pressroom operations, a reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed job is to be expected. When variation of this kind occurs, it will be considered acceptable performance.
A match-print color proof guarantees a reasonable likeness to the final printed pieces. While a match print will accurately predict color, screen pattern and dot placement, a reasonable variation between the match print and the final printed piece is to be expected. When variations of this kind occur, it will be considered acceptable performance. Only a press proof will represent the final print job with one hundred per cent accuracy and no variation.
Press proofs will not be furnished unless they have been required in writing in Fine Print's quotation. A press sheet can be submitted for the client's approval as long as the client is present at the press during make-ready. Any press time lost or alterations/corrections made because of the client's delay or change of mind will be charged at Fine Print's current rates.
Any press time lost or alterations/corrections made because of the customer’s delay or change of mind will be charged at REFLEX’S current rate.
You must provide high-resolution images suited to the offset printing process. Fine Print, Inc. is not liable for images printing as bit maps when this is caused by customers providing low-resolution images.
Customers must provide all color printing images in CMYK format. Fine Print, Inc. is not responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions from RGB to CMYK color modes.
Full color jobs that contain large solid areas of black ink should have the black set up as CMYK black. Fine Print will not be liable for printing a consistent, solid and rich black if you have not done so.
While Fine Print will respect the gradient density of each color in a duo-tone, we are not liable for the final appearance of a duo-tone unless you order a press proof.
Trapping is a design function. We will set trapping if we design your documents or if you ask us to do so. Otherwise, Fine Print will assume you have trapped the file correctly. Incorrect trapping will not be grounds for a redo or cancellation unless Fine Print has set trapping.
Text smaller than ten points created in Photoshop may print in a pixelated or bit-mapped manner. In such instances Fine Print will not be held liable for bit-mapped text. To avoid this it is best to use programs such as Quark Express, Indesign or Adobe Illustrator to create text. Ordering a match print proof will predict whether bitmap text is a potential problem.
It is the client's responsibility to maintain a copy of the original file submitted to the vendor. Fine Print is not responsible for accidental damage to media supplied by the client or for the accuracy of finished or final input. Until digital input can be evaluated by Fine Print, no claims or promises are made about Fine Print's ability to work with jobs submitted in digital format, and no liability is assumed for problems that may arise. Any additional translating. editing, or programming needed to utilize customer-supplied files will be charged at prevailing rates.
A quotation not accepted within 30 days may be changed.
Quotations are based on the accuracy of the specifications provided. Fine Print can requote a job at the time of submission if copy, film, tapes, disls, or other input materials do not conform to the information on which the original quotation was based.
Unless otherwise specified, the price quoted is for a single shipment, without storage, F.0.B. Fine Print's platform. Proposals are based on continuous and uninterrupted delivery of the complete order. If the specifications state otherwise, Fine Print will charge accordingly at current rates.
Charges for delivery of materials and supplies from the client to the provider or from the client's supplier to Fine Print are not included in quotations unless specified.
Title for finished work passes to the customer upon delivery to the carrier at the shipping point or upon mailing of invoices for the finished work or a portion thereof,whichever occurs first.
Overruns or underruns will not exceed 10 percent of the quantity ordered. Fine Print will bill for the actual quantity delivered within this tolerance. If the client requires a guaranteed quantity, the percentage of tolerance must be stated at the time of quotation.
Turnaround times begin ONLY when:
The job will be scheduled with the pre-press production department immediately after order placement. Orders must be submitted by 4 p.m. Eastern Standard Time to be considered to be placed that business day. Orders placed after 4 p.m. will be considered placed on the subsequent business day. A proof will be forwarded to you the next business day after order placement.

There will be no liability or penalty for delays due to a state of war, riot. civil disorder, fire, strikes, accidents, action of government or civil authority, natural disasters, or other cases beyond the control of the Fine Print. In such cases, schedules will be extended by amount of time equal to the delay incurred.
If a proof is furnished later than the next business day, print production will be expedited to make up for lost time. If your submission of files delays proofing, Fine Print, Inc. is under no obligation to expedite print production. In this case, late proof delivery will not be considered grounds for job cancellation.
Although Fine Print, Inc. follows a strict equipment maintenance program and rarely misses production schedules, unexpected malfunctions and technical problems can occasionally delay the printing and pre-press process. Fine Print will always act to make sure that any production difficulties do not delay delivery schedules.
In case of delay caused by technical difficulty, rush fees will be waived or refunded, however technical difficulty will not be grounds for cancellation. If you cannot use printed material due to missed deadline, a credit will be issued. Refunds will not be issued, with the exception of rush fees.
