When to choose Digital Printing and Large Format Prinitng


Last week we’ve blogged about off-set printing and its benefits. But sometimes, off-set printing is not enough; in a digital world you often need the power of Digital Printing.

Digital printing can answer all of your short print runs, or large format printing needs using the latest eye popping colors. Digital printing reproduces digital images on a surface of your choice. Dozens of materials are also available.

Digital Printing, unlike off-set printing, offers the customer more flexibility because printing plates are not required. Changes can be done on a short notice, using a computer software.

Digital Printing can also incorporate VDP or Variable Data Printing which means that every print can be modified and personalized according to the changing need. It allows the printing company to produce industrial amounts of letters with different names on each and every one of them.

If you’re not sure which printing method is right for you, let our professional Poster Printers staff assist you on your next poster printing project. They will do a great job on your full color posters and photo poster printing. In fact they will guide you in choosing the right method of printing, since there are times when it is more cost effective to print your poster digitally and there are times when it is cheaper to print it by offset printing.

Offset Printing. What is it and how come it is so cheap?

Offset Printing is the most common printing technique. Even the newspapers you read are printed using the offset printing method, because offset printing can efficiently answer commercial printing and massive high volume quantities. The motto of offset printing is “the more you print, the less you pay!”

How does it work? In offset printing, the desired inked image is transferred, (hence “offset”) from a plate, onto a rubber blanket, and eventually to the printing surface. This process delivers a high image quality, and allows producing clean consistent prints.

Offset printing can provide your business a cost efficient solution to mass printing. When choosing offset printing, you will enjoy quick turnaround time and cheap production because offset printing was and still is the cheapest method to create massive quantities, and achieve high quality standards.

At The Poster Printers, we specialize in full color poster prints using the latest and most advanced equipment and the latest software so you get the most vibrant color gamet available. We print posters cheap for you without sacrificing quality. So go ahead, give us a call at 718-451-1790 and we'll get the job done.

How to create a successful poster ad?

Posters and Signs are probably the most basic way to promote your business or event. Posters and signs can be used when you need to display your product or event to the public and there is a large selection of posters of standard sizes and colors. What should you choose?

First of all, remember that people will look at the poster from a fair distance, probably while walking down the street or riding a bus or a cab. So remember that if you can’t understand the content of your poster from 20 feet, your audience will not be able to do so as well.

You shouldn’t cramp each and every piece of information in the poster either. Posters should catch the attention of the viewer with lively colors, a catchy slogan and preferably a call to action.

At the Poster Printers, you will find high quality & large format posters, that are available on 100lb text, 8pt card stock and 12pt card stock. What does it mean?

100lb text are perfect for giveaways, window placements or for posting on construction sites. These can be folded, rolled or shipped flat.

8pt and 12pt card are ideal for heavy duty outdoor advertising, such as posting on lamp posts or political advertising. Order as low as 100 copies and still pay much less than digital poster printing.

Whether it’s advertising, sales or promotions you are looking to print, or even your favorite photo on a canvas for a true artist reproduction of your family member, the Poster Printers are here to answer all your printing needs.

Billboard Advertising – The Basic Know-Hows


Billboards are a great way to get noticed. Of course - they are huge. But size doesn’t always matter… So, in order to have a successful Billboard campaign, you should follow a few guideline:
  • Know your target audience. Be aware of your consumers and target their needs - not yours. Don’t say how wonderful your company is. Focus on what the client wants instead.
  • Know what you want to say. Your message should be short and provocative. It It should get attention and create action. There are a lot of billboards out there and you need to be the special one.
  • Know how to say it. Most chances are, that people don’t really care about your ad. They walk from point A to B. They drive their kids to school. And you have to get their attention.
  • Be creative. People just love advertisements. When they’re creative.
  • Keep it short. Don’t advertise your entire new spring collection. Pick one product and focus on it. Remember that in billboards – more is often less.

The Poster Printers print all kinds of billboards – for Buildings, Taxi Tops, Bus Shelters, Trade Show Displays, Pop Displays, Bus Exterior and anything you can imagine. Visit www.theposterprinters.com and get your price quote today!

Go Wild! Go Wild Posting!

Are you tired of the same old marketing techniques? The random flyers, the paper classifieds, the direct mailing? Well, you can do better than that.

Advertising is a world of fun, excitement and creativity. And you don’t have to be one of the big guys in order to maximize your marketing capabilities. All you need is some innovation, and as a business owner, we’re sure you have a lot of it.


Take Guerrilla marketing for example. A Guerrilla campaign relies on creativity and imagination, rather on a big juicy budget. When using Guerrilla marketing, you build your brand in unique and provocative ways. Provocative doesn’t mean naked people running around, but rather a bright idea that takes advantage and full awareness on its surroundings.

With Guerilla marketing, you can kiss billboards goodbye. Use the street, the urban settings, public places and be a real entrepreneur.

Wild Posting is one of the best ways to implement Guerrilla marketing into your business. Wild posting is splattered on construction site barricades, facades and alleyways. Wild posting is now a popular advertising method and The Poster Printers specialize in creating huge posters for the outdoor Guerilla marketing.

Whether it’s advertising, sales or promotions you are looking to print, maybe signs and banners for special events, or even your favorite photo on a canvas for a true artist reproduction of your family member, Poster Printers are here to answer all your printing needs.
