Princeton Printer

I got my thesis printed here. Seven copies in all: five vinyl copies as gifts, one leather copy for me, and one library copy. The final results were nice, and it is good to work with a printer that knows Princeton’s library requirements. But communication and quality issues made the process challenging.
I had to call repeatedly before I managed to make an online order. The turnaround for binding was slow (not their fault), and when I finally got the thesis, a mechanical failure had caused severe streaking in the print. They had not noticed this, and I’m lucky that I did before it was too late.
They replaced the order and let me keep the old copy, which was very generous. However, I had to make multiple trips. In the end, I got my thesis with hours to spare, even though I had ordered it more than two weeks in advance.
Considering the premium price tag – I paid $ 580 in all – I might have done things a little differently in retrospect. I still would have bought the library copy with them, as they know what they’re doing there. But if I wanted personal copies, I might have turned to an online service.

Just had a 30×42″ posterboard made to use at our booth for SCORE at the Princeton Library. The staff gave me tips on how to make the logos look better, turned it around in one day and delivered it to me. Thanks for the Great work!

The last honest, reliable and high quality printer in the area! I spend $ 500+ annually on printing and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Great, professional place located right on Nassau St. They do good work, have fair prices, and get their jobs done quickly. This is our go-​to place for printing promotional material.

The architecture firm I work at often has proposals that need to be coil bound at the last minute. Princeton Printer is always accomodating and quick with turnaround. The results are usually neat and professional-​looking even though they sometimes mis-​punch the sheets and ask for them to be re-​printed. They are good with calling and letting you know when your job is ready to be picked up.

You’ve heard that businesses that turn a negative experience into a positive one will create a better relationship with the customer than with customers who had a plain old good experience in the first place? This is one of those places for me.
I was asked to pick up an order for my employer, and way before I walked in the door there was a whole knotty mess of confusion over what was ordered, picked up, paid for, ordered again, etc. When I got there I was met with two personalities– a very nice, helpful young woman (pregnant at the time of writing – thanks for your help!) and an uncooperative, short tempered older woman. (If you meet with the older woman, turn around and come back when you can talk to someone else.) Luckily, the older woman got frustrated enough with the situation that she removed herself and the young woman was able to help me puzzle through the situation. In the course of things, I also met a very nice middle aged man (probably the owner?) who compensated for the older woman’s surliness, to some degree.
The takeaway is that they found our misplaced order, took back the item that we had paid for but didn’t want, and gave us a refund of the difference. All’s well that ends well, as long as you don’t have to talk to that one lady.

I’ve had several large orders of recital programs printed here. I felt that their prices were a bit too high, but considering it’s Princeton I paid about what I expected to pay. The programs were flawlessly executed and exactly as I had agreed upon with the salesperson. They were also ready exactly when they were supposed to be, which is obviously important.
This place is on Nassau Street, so don’t necessarily expect to find parking during busy times– at least not in front of the place. Princeton is so walkable, though, that it’s really not that big of a deal.
