Minuteman Press

I’ve been using their services for years. The guy that originally help me with the art work and taking my orders left the company and moved on and I only know that because he actually called the office to tell me that and asked if he could be of any service to me instead of going back to Minute Man. I didn’t think it was very professional of him so kept on using MinuteMan’s services and then POOF! One day I placed a large order for work and for TWO WEEKS, MULTIPLE CALLS, EMAILS ANNNNNNNND A DRIVE BY no one was in site. They closed down without letting anyone know. Not even a courtesy email. You have all the artwork and now I have to start ALL over with someone else. THANKS A MILLION!

Have had previous work done before a few times, and have been very happy with the work done. I have been trying to call them for days, at different times, and decided to drive there, since I need work done again and they hopefully have the previous Art work. There is a paper taped to the front door that is an eviction notice !! and no one is there. They still have there things in the office. Would sure like to find out if I can get the artwork of previous work to have it redone..

The employee sounds like he hates his life, which is fine, but don’t let you customers know about it. If you’re the one answering the phone, try to sound like you care a little about the fact that the person on the other end of the phone might be giving you money. Customer service is HUGE in the design industry. Get it together.

Total convert to Minuteman press Irvine. They made the BEST print job we’ve ever done at our company, and at a truly great value. The graphics are so clear, and if you approve of the proof you’re responsible for the grammatical errors so. not sure why there would be grammatical errors on the final unless you approved the proof!
It’s GREAT quality printing — super clear and hi-​res, with great paper quality as well. Exactly what we wanted, I’m so printing with them again for sure.
Plus I went by myself and they helped me out to my car with the heavy boxes — super nice since the boxes were so heavy! Dana is great to work with!
Accepts credit cards but with an additional surcharge, none for debit/​check.

Needed urgent prints and they provided the nicest and quickest service! Thank you for your help! Best service yet!

I cannot say enough good things about the lovely gentlemen at Minuteman Press. I emailed Dana a proof of my wedding invite to get a quote for how much it would be to print approximately 140 invitations. He emailed me back less than two hours later with a quote. I went into the store to approve the paper before I signed off on the print and he was so patient with me, explaining different types of paper and what the effect would be. He even pulled up the official proof while I was there and recommended a few things that could be changed to make it even better quality (which he informed me lots of printing places normally don’t do – they’ll take the proof you send and print it and if something turns out to be off at the end, too bad, you’re outta luck), allowing me the chance to contact my invite designer and have her make those changes. I sent him the updated proof at 3:17 pm and by 5:07 pm got an email saying they were ready to be picked up. Amazing!!! I won’t go anywhere else for my printing!

Went to Minuteman Press for some urgent prints on 40x Flip Charts that we needed on the fly. I was quoted 1 – 3 day turnaround, but was completed in 1 day! Beyond satisfied with the results. Dana, Dave and Shane were all very insightful and provided beyond exceptional services with great personalities.
I will definitely be coming back for further prints. Highly recommended!

Had a rush print job that I needed to get done. Was very impressed with the quality of service from drop-​off to pick-​up. Work was done accurately and on time. Highly recommended.

I needed to have some new business cards printed at very short notice. A friend recommended me to Minuteman Press on Skypark in Irvine.
I cannot say enough good things about the service and my experience there.
They are very attentive to detail and provide the finished product in very good time.
They are SuperAwesome.
Stupendous customer service.
Their products are incredible.
My experience was very very good.
I will be having all my future printing work done with this company.
Dave and Scott were both terrific.

This was my first time using minuteman press! These guys are super knowledgable and are nice! They go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied. I ordered 500 brochures for a client and both my client and myself were blown away at how great they turned out!

I would not recommend this place. Sorry Unilocal,you failed me this time =(
I don’t know about the 4 – 5 star ratings… seems like there’s a bunch of fake reviews… it’s very fishy…
Dave was hard to work with and sent rude emails. It’s very unprofessional to send abrupt emails all in CAPS. He kept messing up on our business cards with typos (his mistakes) and said that if he had to make any more changes to the business cards, that he would have to charge me for any additional changes. Excuse me? David you made the grammatical errors, not me. Don’t expect me to pay for your mistakes… I took my business somewhere else.

I have been very happy with Minuteman Press, they have done all the printing stuff for our wedding, they have met all of our needs and done a great job every step of the way. I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality work, fair prices, and great service.

As good as it gets — Dave is great to work with, will be coming back!

I’m a little disappointed in this place. Had a lot of print jobs after moving offices so I thought I’d check this place out since it’s in Irvine. The owner was nice and tried to be as helpful as he can. What confuses me is that he never followed up! After seeing what I wanted, he said he’d find out turn around time and pricing b/​c he’s never used this particular process before. Ok, cool. A day passes. Nothing. 2^nd day. Still nothing. 3^rd day. There is no 3^rd day. I’ve already contacted another printer the night before and moved on. After about a week, out of curiosity, I gave him a call and he still didn’t have an answer. This was about 5 months ago.
Thank goodness I can count on Garden Grove. If there’s one thing Koreans/​Asians are good at, it’s getting things done before they need to be. It’s not uncommon to expect Asians to expect something to be done, like 2 hours before they even make the request! This is what you would hear if something doesn’t get done on their time:
Customer: Why aren’t my things ready yet? I told you I’m on my way!
Owner: But you just called me 2 minutes ago…
Customer: What?! You should have known then! No, no, you didn’t finish on time so this has to be discount price.
Hahaha seriously, I’m not kdding. But I consider myself a hybrid so I’m not even that bad. However, if you pass 24… maaaaybe even 48 hours, you’re pushing it!
The only reason why I gave a 3 star is because the owner was very helpful in making design/​layout suggestions and seemed to know his stuff. Even the prices he quoted weren’t that bad. If only they had been more reliable :(

Note: This is a customer service review only.
I was looking for a place to print out a single 8.5×11 sheet of photos (preferably onto something that resembles photo paper), so I gave Minuteman Press a phone call to see if they do that sort of thing. Dave answered the phone and kindly told me that they provide that service, but that due to the paper they use, it would be costly and not worth the drive for just one sheet of paper. He was even so nice as to let me know that Target and Walmart photo centers provide that service, and it would probably only cost me a dollar!
I really appreciated his honesty and was impressed that he was able to help a confused caller without being even a smidgen condescending. How nice :) Now he has a 5 star review from me and I haven’t even tried out his services yet. I’ll be sure to give this place a try the next time I really have some printing to do!

I feel the need to write a review about Minuteman Press because I want to talk about how great the guys here are.
I brought in some very amateur looking graduation invitations I needed printed and they were amazing! I walked out of the shop feeling as though my invitation could be in the next issue of Martha Stewart’s magazine. They’re incredibly helpful and will work with you to make sure you have a great design and print that you’re happy with. And on top of that, they’re incredibly patient too! I had no idea what a flattened image even was prior to working with them.
Great job! I’ll definitely be back to print more here.

Dave really helped me out when I was in a jam and in a rush. I called and asked my questions = I got immediate answers. No BS.
Cost — BARGAIN! I am never again going to the overpriced hell that is Kinko’s and other places like it.
Service — I got my print job within 15 minutes or maybe it was even less because 5 minutes can even feel forever. They were willing to go out and get the particular paper I was looking for but found a great alternative in their store for me. Above and beyond service!
I’m even more excited because it’s actually kind of tricky to find a good printing company in Orange County to service your needs in such a fast, friendly manner.

I called on a Friday morning to see if they could help me print a two-​sided 8.5×11 document, then cut it in half, and fold it. I told them I needed it done on the same day, and they said the print and cut could be done same day, but fold would need more time. So I decided to do the fold myself, and brought my stuff down to their store for printing and cutting.
Dave was there, and as other Unilocalers have pointed out, he was very helpful. He prepared a quote for the total cost within 2 minutes. I told him to go for it, and he pretty much finished the job in under 8 minutes with me standing right there.
The job was straight-​forward, but the quality of the print and cut was excellent. Customer service was outstanding, and it seemed Dave and his associate were always cognizant that I was waiting there — they did their best to provide quick but quality service.
I’ll definitely come here again for my printing needs. The cost was inexpensive compared to FedEx/​Kinkos, while service and product quality was great.

david is freaking awesome! he helped me print my main wedding invitations so they look professional and beautiful. coming here made me realize, WTF didn’t i come here sooner!!! i could have saved myself hours upon hours of pain, misery, and MS word HELL.
the prices are so reasonable, and the quality is second to none. david was able to format my invites (to print two per page), print them, and then cut them all to the perfect size in less than half an hour. if i did this myself at home on my stupid inkjet (trust me, i tried), it would take me DAYS. and the invites would look kinda shitty in comparison. lesson learned — i’m absolutely coming back here to do any other print jobs i’ll need for my upcoming wedding. thanks, david — you rule!

You just finished designing this fabulous promotional flyer for your business. Now what? FedEx/Kinko’s? Sure, if you want subpar print quality done by a clueless employee, who’ll charge you a ridiculously exorbitant price.
Instead of laying down for a shitty company that can’t even carry out its main function properly (i.e., deliver packages in a TIMELY fashion), you should try Minuteman Press for your printing needs. Why?
1. They’re efficient at what they do and are trained to do it right. This is a business dedicated to printing, so bring your Photoshop files on a USB flash drive and watch them work the magic to get you some professional copies.
2. Their printers (and paper) are high quality. Even blurry rasterized text prints out just like normal text on these printers (of course, you should NEVER rasterize text, but that’s a completely different conversation).
3. The prices! You don’t know how much you’re being screwed over at FedEx/Kinko’s until you’ve gone to a specialized printing store. I had to print out 7 color files on sheets of 11×17 paper. FedEx/Kinko’s would’ve charged me around $ 14 for this job; Minuteman Press charged me $ 2.94. Less than THREE DOLLARS for 7 full colored copies on extra large paper? Bargain!
4. The workers are very customer-​friendly. They ask questions to ensure that you get exactly what you want.
5. They’re right next to Harry’s Deli (same building, different suite), so you can grab a sammich made by a genuinely funny dude while your files are printing next door.
Don’t settle for blur. Get your professional printing needs taken care of at Minuteman Press! This place did such a great job that I’m willing to drive the 3 extra miles to come here from now on.
