Here are 5 ways you don\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Don\u2019t go rogue.<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to paper, you\u2019ve got experts at your disposal \u2014 us! Before starting your print project, talk to us about what you are trying to accomplish. Let us help you select the right sheet that will run best on our presses, optimize your job costs, and maybe even save you money.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Consider close-outs.<\/h3>\n<p>Have a long-run job and want to save a few dollars? Ask us to look for paper closeouts. Yes, just like shoes and clothing, paper goes on clearance. There isn\u2019t anything wrong with it. Just like last year\u2019s fashions, paper gets refreshed and updated, too. That can save you big money, especially on those longer run jobs.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Adjust the trim size.<\/h3>\n<p>By optimizing the job on the press sheet, you can often achieve significant cost savings. Instead of running the job on a 8 \u00bd x 11 sheet, for example, perhaps you could tweak the trim size to get two-up on a larger sheet. That\u2019s another reason to talk to us early on in the process.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Reduce the brightness.<\/h3>\n<p>In general, the brighter the sheet, the more it costs. For some jobs, that brightness is critical and should not be sacrificed. But for others, you might be able to go to a #2 or #3 sheet without affecting the appearance of the final output. Don&#8217;t pay for brightness you don\u2019t need.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Use our house sheet.<\/h3>\n<p>For some jobs, only a specific stock will do. For others, our house sheet will meet your job demands perfectly \u2014 and reduce your costs at the same time. We do the bulk buying so you don\u2019t have to.<\/p>\n<p>Want to save money on your next printing job? Let us walk you through the options.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":421,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-655","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>5 Ways to Trim Paper Costs - PPI :: Printing &amp;
