Six gaps

Six gaps that show up on a real order

01

60+ paper types

Axiomprint carries a narrower stock list. Across its whole catalog 4OVER4.COM offers 60+ paper types, among them StarLustre Platinum, Metallic Pearl and Classic Linen.

02

One printer for the whole order

Business cards, postcards, brochures, banners, custom stickers, labels, booklets, door hangers, and lenticular postcards, all from one printer.

03

Presses running since 1999

Presses running since 1999 have printed 10 billion+ cards out of the Queens plant.

04

Cardstock that goes to 80pt

Standard postcards come on 22 stocks, from 10pt StarLustre Platinum to 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice. Black business cards run from 32pt to 80pt Midnite Black Uncoated.

05

Shipping to all 50 states

4OVER4.COM ships from Queens to any state, with same-day options when you order by 12pm ET.

06

Free cards and coins on top

The Axiomprint column shows no free cards and no loyalty program. Here new customers get 200 business cards free, every order banks coins, and a lower written quote goes to the price match.

Stock and color

Where the paper gap shows

Thickness is where the two lists part. Standard postcards default to 14pt Gloss Cover and standard flyers to 100# Gloss Text, and either can move up the stock list on the product page.

Color is the other gap. A pre-press check on every order and CMYK-calibrated presses mean the teal on your 500th postcard matches the teal on your first, and a reorder next season matches both.

1

Pricing

File review and quality checks are already inside the base price shown on each product page.

2

Quality

Standard postcards on 14pt Gloss Cover ship in 3 business days from $16.48 per 50, checked at pre-press before they run. Order a free sample pack and feel 14pt against 24pt before you pick.

3

Support

Real print experts and a free proof on every order, so nothing goes to press until it is right.

Paper and product range

Two catalogs side by side

Finishes a client notices

The finish is where the gap widens, because it is the part a client notices when the card is in their hand, and it is the part Axiomprint's list is short on.

Ten product types in one cart

A product launch that needs black cards, postcards and brochures goes through one checkout on one account. To see how each product type is made and used, read the complete guide to custom printed products.

Wally explains the switch from Axiomprint

Feel 80pt before you order a full run

Wally the 4OVER4 mascot weighs a thin Axiomprint card against a thick premium 4OVER4.COM business card

Axiomprint gets you a card near you. 4OVER4.COM ships the card anywhere, and a new account starts with 200 free business cards on premium stock, so the weight is in your hand first.

Axiomprint in depth

Axiomprint and 4OVER4.COM in depth

The two overlap on cards, postcards and flyers, and part ways on specialty lines, price programs and quality checks.

Where Axiomprint stops and 4OVER4.COM keeps going

The 4OVER4.COM catalog holds professional design templates and products well past business cards and flyers. The loyalty program also pays coins on every order, which Axiomprint does not offer. To test the stock first, order the free business cards before you commit to a full run.

Three sentences on the switch

Axiomprint suits a customer who wants to collect an order at the counter. 4OVER4.COM suits a business that ships to more than one city or needs a product Axiomprint does not list: the same account handles a 250-card starter order or a 50,000-piece direct mail campaign, shipped from Queens.

Pricing: black cards at $0.81 each from 50 up

Standard business cards printed by 4OVER4.COM

Business cards at 4OVER4.COM start as low as $0.04 per card, and black business cards work out to $0.81 each at 50.

Loyalty coins change the math for repeat buyers. Every order earns coins you can redeem on future purchases, and 500 coins cover the $5.99 shipping on the 200 free business cards.

Print quality Axiomprint cannot match

Premium brochures printed by 4OVER4.COM

The presses run to a G7 color profile, checked with multi-day accuracy tests, and experts review every artwork against a 30-point checklist before it prints.

Stickers, door hangers and lenticular: the lines Axiomprint skips

Full-color postcards printed by 4OVER4.COM

On top of the cards, postcards and flyers, 4OVER4.COM prints custom stickers, door hangers, retractable banners, lenticular postcards, labels and booklets, with 10,000+ design templates and a free online designer to start from. The whole order goes in one cart. The custom online printing collection shows that range in one grid, and if ordering this way is new to you, read our guide on how to print online.

4OVER4.COM is an FSC certified printer (#C013635), and its green printing runs on waterless presses with soy inks.

Who should switch, and who should stay

Thick black business cards printed by 4OVER4.COM

Switch if your brand needs a finish Axiomprint lacks, such as painted edges on 32pt stock or raised ink. Agencies running print for several clients can keep every job, from postcards to brochures, on one account.

A buyer who wants premium stocks shipped to several cities, with loyalty coins on each order, gets more from 4OVER4.COM.

What changes when you switch

The trade is simple: the cards arrive by carrier, from a printer that 99% of its customers say they will use again.

4.8/ 5

The verdict

Stay with Axiomprint if you collect at its Los Angeles counter. Pick 4OVER4.COM to ship anywhere in the US, with black cards on Midnite Black board, five guarantees and a written price match.
