Print Services has a wide range of paper and material options for in-house printing. While physical Reference Guides include all items listed below, we understand that not everyone has them available at all times and hope that this digital guide can help you decide which paper option is right for your project!

Copy and Print Papers

Surprise me! Paper

Over the years, we've accumulated various paper stocks that we don't keep consistent stock of but have a limited supply on hand. We cannot guarantee any specific color but will use our best judgement based on what you are ordering. Please note that this option will only show up when you select Black and White printing. Some sizes have weight options; [Text] will be lighter weight whereas [Cover] will be heavier like card stock.

Not sure what to choose? Let us pick for you!

We understand that selecting a paper can sometimes be overwhelming, so if you're ever unsure, you can select the 'Unsure / Print Services' Pick' and we will select the paper that we feel would best suit your item!
