Professional vs Retail
Professional Same Day Printing vs Retail Store Pickup
Search "same day printing" and you'll find retail stores and copy centers. Those are copy counters and photo kiosks. 4OVER4 is a commercial print facility. Here's what that means for your order.
The retail stores solve one problem: you need something in your hands within an hour and you live near the store. For everything else -- quality, product range, finishes, volume, nationwide shipping -- professional same day printing from 4OVER4 is a different category entirely.
4OVER4 has printed 10 billion+ pieces for clients like Google, MoMA, Columbia University, and The Lion King on Broadway. That's not the resume of a copy counter.
Deadlines & Delivery

What starts the clock? Your order confirmation with approved artwork. If your file needs corrections, the cutoff applies to when you approve the final proof -- not when you first upload.

Use Cases
Who Needs Same Day Printing?
Nobody plans to need same day printing. It just happens. Here are the situations 4OVER4 sees every week.
Trade Show in 48 Hours
Your booth materials got lost in transit. Or the client changed the messaging. Or you just got confirmed for a show you weren't expecting. 4OVER4 prints business cards, banners, brochures, and postcards same day. Overnight shipping gets them to your booth.
Last-Minute Event
Fundraiser, product launch, grand opening. The invitations went out but the printed materials didn't. Order by noon and they ship that afternoon.
Reprint After a Mistake
Typo on 500 business cards. Wrong phone number on the flyers. It happens. Same day printing means the corrected version ships before anyone hands out the bad ones.
New Business, No Time to Wait
You just filed the LLC and have a meeting tomorrow. Business cards printed on G7 Certified presses, shipped same day. Not something you printed on your home inkjet.
Seasonal Rush
Holiday promotions, back-to-school campaigns, end-of-quarter pushes. When the deadline is real and the marketing materials aren't ready yet, same day printing fills the gap.
Sales Team Restock
Your reps burned through their business cards and postcards faster than expected. Same day reprint, overnight shipping, back in action by morning.
4OVER4 has been handling these situations since 1999. 500,000+ projects completed. The production floor knows how to move fast without moving sloppy.
Turnaround Comparison
Same Day vs Standard Turnaround: What Changes?
Short answer: the timeline. Not the quality. 4OVER4 runs the same presses, the same checks, and the same color profiling whether your order ships today or next week.
The differences come down to time constraints. Same day orders use standard paper stocks and sizes because they don't require custom die setup or specialty finishing steps. If you need spot UV, foil stamping, or embossing, those processes add 1-2 business days. 4OVER4 won't skip production steps to save a day.
For everything else? Same presses. Same people. Same result.
Trust & Quality
Does Same Day Printing Mean Lower Quality?
No. 4OVER4 doesn't have a "rush mode" where the presses run differently. Same G7 Certified equipment. Same 30-point file check by real technicians. Same color profiling that earned a 4.8-star Google rating across thousands of reviews.
The production floor in Queens processes same day orders alongside standard orders on the same machines. Your business cards don't get a lesser version of the press. The only thing that changes is scheduling priority -- your job moves to the front of the queue.
4OVER4 has printed 10 billion+ pieces since 1999. Clients include Google, MoMA, Yale University, Columbia University, and The Lion King on Broadway. Same day orders go through the same production line.

Our Story
Partner With Innovators
They told us we were crazy. We don't want to be sane.
The Beginning
In 1999, Google was barely starting out. WiFi didn't exist. People were afraid of Y2K. And two best friends, second-generation immigrants and patent-holding engineers in Queens, New York, launched 4OVER4.COM as the second web-based printer in the entire United States.
The Innovation
4OVER4 was the first printer to introduce full-color printing with 24 to 48 hour turnaround. When the industry said it couldn't be done that fast, they did it anyway. No compromises, no excuses, just engineering.
27 Years and Counting
Over 350 products. More than 6,000 possible combinations. 150,000+ businesses served, from solo freelancers to Google and the United Nations. A facility in Queens that still runs on vegetable inks and waterless presses — built that way from day one because it was the right thing to do.

I drove to Queens and picked up my order the same afternoon. Can't beat that when you have a client meeting the next morning.
FAQ
Same Day Printing: Your Questions Answered
Common questions about 4OVER4's same day printing, answered.
What is the cutoff time for same day printing?
Order by 12pm ET (noon Eastern Time) on any business day and 4OVER4 prints and ships your order that same afternoon from Queens, NY. Orders placed after 12pm go into the next business day's queue. Weekends and federal holidays don't count -- same day is Monday through Friday only.
What products qualify for same day printing?
Business cards, postcards, flyers, brochures, stickers, letterheads, envelopes, rack cards, banners, and posters on standard paper stocks and sizes. Custom die-cut shapes and specialty finishes (foil, embossing, spot UV) may need 1-2 extra business days. Not sure about your specific order? Call 718-932-2700 and 4OVER4's team will tell you on the spot.
How much does same day printing cost?
No rush fee on qualifying standard products. You pay the regular product price plus whatever shipping speed you pick. The only extra cost is if you choose overnight or express delivery to get it faster. The printing itself? Same price whether it ships today or next week.
Does same day printing mean same day delivery?
Same day printing means 4OVER4 prints and ships your order the same day you place it. When it arrives depends on the shipping method you choose. For actual same-day-in-hand, local pickup at 4OVER4's Queens, NY facility (19-41 46th St) is the move. Otherwise, overnight shipping gets it to most US addresses by the next business morning.
Is same day printing lower quality than standard turnaround?
No. Same G7 Certified presses. Same 30-point file check by real technicians. Same color profiling. Same quality standards that earned 4OVER4 a 4.8-star Google rating. The only difference is scheduling priority -- your order moves to the front of the production queue.
Can I get same day printing for business cards?
Yes. Business cards are one of the most popular same day products at 4OVER4. Standard 2" x 3.5" cards on most paper stocks qualify. Order by 12pm ET and they ship that afternoon. 4OVER4 offers 20+ business card styles with 60+ paper options on standard turnaround.
What's the difference between same day printing online and in-store same day?
In-store same day at retail locations means driving to a store and using their copy machines or photo kiosks. You get basic copies, simple flyers, or photo prints on limited paper. 4OVER4's same day printing uses commercial G7 Certified presses with 60+ paper stocks, professional finishes, and nationwide shipping. It's commercial printing versus a copy counter.
Do you offer local pickup in NYC?
Yes. 4OVER4 is at 19-41 46th St, Queens, NY 11105. Local pickup is available on same day orders. Call 718-932-2700 to coordinate a pickup time. NYC-based businesses and designers use this for true same-day-in-hand turnaround.
What happens if my file needs corrections?
The 12pm ET cutoff applies to orders with approved artwork. If 4OVER4's technicians find issues during the 30-point file check, they'll flag them. The same day clock starts when you approve the corrected proof, not when you first placed the order. So submit early -- the earlier your artwork is approved, the better your chances of hitting the same day window.
Can I get same day printing on weekends or holidays?
Same day printing is available Monday through Friday on regular business days. Orders placed on weekends or federal holidays queue for the next business day. Need something by Monday? Place your order Friday before 12pm ET and choose overnight shipping.
