Just a thought.....

Just a thought.....

Send them to the printer down the street that needs the work.

Sorry...don't mean to be a wise guy, but everyone seems to want to get into this business rather than use the companies that already exist.

With that said.....If you can give us more info maybe we can help you out. Are these full color? Are you looking at digital or offset? Large or small quantities? What kind of space do you have?

You'll get nowhere near what you want with that quantity and budget.

CRAP PRINT = CRAP FOOD

I cant believe the quality of take away menus we get in the UK, I always avoid those restaurants

Well, it would probably be better to let the stock have the glossy finish. I don't think trying to find a printer that can print a glossy layer would work. As for water-proofing, laminating is one way to achieve that, but I don't think that is what you want either. Most glossy stock can repel a small amount of moisture and you might have to be satisfied with that.

Are your leaflets different every day? Or just different every month?

If what you are printing changes every day I would recommend using a digital printer in your area. Establish an account and get billing based on the understanding that you will need 1000 copies every day.

If what you are printing changes every month, then consider talking to an offset printer. You should be able get billed based on the amount you need per month, but only be invoiced every couple of weeks.

I doubt a takeaways menu being out of register is actually a reflection on their food

 

[ajr]

If the menu has been produced on the cheap, design is bad paper is crap then I think it does reflect on them!

back to the topic. he needs a good laser printer spec'd for gloss. or a production digital color machine like a xerox 700 or a km5501. call your local copier sales people

cost is the other issue. It should be cheaper to buy copies from a printer. for 5000 per week you should be able to find a printer to do this cheaper than a laser printer. even if you go to 1000 per day. concentrate on the business you run.

...for many of us, first impressions count i believe, the amount of junk takeaway menus coming through my door just doesn't draw me in for the most part...
