Choosing a name card <\/a>printer can be difficult, because there are so many things to think about. There is the cost of the cards themselves, the paper type and weight, ink color and finish…the list goes on! This article will help you understand 10 factors that should be considered when choosing a name card printer for your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Know your budget before you find name card printer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The cost of your name cards can vary, depending on the type and quantity that you want. Name card printers typically have a variety of models available at different price points to suit any budget. Some even allow for variable data printing so you can save money by using one printer for multiple purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Consider the card’s material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you want cards that feel thick or thin? Glossy finish or matte look? Are they plastic, vinyl, PVC, polyester blend material? Different materials can affect the price. Also, different material have different touch and feel. If you are looking for a professional-looking business card, it is best to choose cards with high paper quality or print on plastic material; if cost is more important than appearance then consider choosing thinner materials that will still give your information some personalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Consider the finishing of the card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The finishing can be a treatment to the surface of the card or with extra coating that makes it glossy, matte, etc. With this factor you have more options for colors and patterns as well. You need to know what’s the purpose to add extra finishing. For example, if you want a waterproof card, then you need to find a finishing that can resist water. Seal coating or lamination is an extra protective layer applied on top of the printed surface and it helps your card to last longer. It makes your cards more durable, waterproof and also protects from dirt and scuffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Consider the lead time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The lead time (also called production days) is how long does it take them make your products before shipping out. Lead time is important especially when you are rushing to get the name cards for a specific event or promotion. Most of the printer in Malaysia take 3-4 working days lead time, but we SenangPrint only need 1 working day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5) Consider the shipping cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some of the printers do not show shipping cost before you add the product to cart . So it is important to check the shipping cost before you make payment. Most of the printers in Malaysia will charge between RM7 to RM10 shipping fees. However, SenangPrint make the shipping fee free for you! You can enjoy free delivery to doorstep service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6) Consider the customer support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You should try to call or WhatsApp the printer to test their customer support’s quality before you make purchase. Some printers in Malaysia will not pick up your call and some of them will ask you to email or WhatsApp for support. If the customer support is bad, they may ignore your problem until it gets worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore , SenangPrint has good reputation on this area because we provide FREE warranty coverage within 2 days from the date that you receive the products. If there’s something wrong with your product within the time period, we’ll replace a new one for you! We don’t want our customers to face any inconvenience at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7) Artwork Design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t have a ready softcopy artwork in PDF \/ AI \/ PSD format, it is better to ask whether the printers provide design service in advance. Some of the printers provide design service but some of them not. SenangPrint is one of the printers that only focusing on printing, and we don’t provide design service. However, you can make your own design for FREE by using Canva<\/a>. Canva is a design tools (website) dedicated for layman like you that do not familiar with professional graphic design tools. It is as easy as PowerPoint. If you know how to use PowerPoint, you will definitely know how to use Canva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8) Consider whether the printers help to check artwork<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This gives you the opportunity to make more changes if necessary. Otherwise, there is a risk of having your printed name cards with design problems like misplaced text or image. Sometimes it will take several days for the designer to finish the work and only then you know that something’s wrong with it before sending prints on bulk production run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
