4 Color Process Printing Postcards

Print Postcards in Full Color

My Postcard Printing uses the 4 Color Process Printing Postcards. The process is known as the CMYK color process, which is represented by the four colors cyan, magenta, yellow and key color black. These colors are mixed together to produce excellent colors, shades and hues. The color options available for postcards are:

4/0 – 4 color on one side, blank back
4/1 – 4 color on one side, black back
4/4 – 4 color on both sides

We also use digital and offset presses to print 50 to 100,000 flat postcards or 250 to 100,000 folded postcards and have a printing turnaround of 1 to 3 business days, depending on the postcard’s specifications.
