Recommend me a London-based printer.

May 2, 2011 11:11 AM

Can anyone recommend a quality printer in London, UK? I will be printing a few runs of business cards, followed soon after by various other bits of business stationery, and I want a good quality digital printer that I can talk to.

Ideally, it'll be a nice quality establishment that I can talk to. Even better would be a customer-facing space that I can go in and look at the different papers and finishes that they have, though that's not an absolute requirement.

Unfortunately, it has to be digital printing.

For this job, I don't want virtual places like moo.com, no matter the quality.

Additionally, I'd like to see a site that contains feedback and/or a useful descriptive list of similar services.

My wife has used Reprocity on multiple occasions for business-related printing (including cards & stationary) and loves them. Very high-quality work with good prices and fast turnarounds. Ask for Brett.

I've used a lot of London printers. Printers with a proper shopfront (eg Prontaprint, KallKwick) tend to be significantly more expensive, but if you're fairly new to print buying, and aren't sure what's available, it may be worth it for you.

I use 42 Square. They have really great customer service - ask for Mike Packham. They are based in Borough and you can visit, but it's very much a working printers - noisy and dirty.
