Can I order a single sample print before placing a large order?

Yes, you can order a single printed sample of your own file through the website before committing to a larger run. This is done with the hard copy proof option at checkout and lets you confirm the real design, colors, and materials in hand.

• Start a normal order and upload your print-ready file.
• Select the Hard Copy Proof option during checkout. It is available on many products.
• Note that you are charged for the sample print itself. A free online proof is always included if you only need a digital review.
• Use the printed sample to verify color, layout, and stock before scaling up the quantity: screens and printed ink rarely match exactly, so check color accuracy, feel the coating or specialty finish like foil or spot UV, confirm fine text and thin lines hold up at final size, and catch any bleed, trim, or safe-margin issues before they repeat across the whole run.
• If you are still choosing materials, a free sample pack lets you compare paper stocks and finishes side by side, though it shows stock options rather than your specific design.

For anything with an unusual size, texture, or specialty coating, a test print is well worth the upfront cost. Options can vary by product, so confirm the latest details on the product page or with support.
