What to include when you request a quote
The quickest way to get an accurate figure is to send the basics in one message. If you are not sure about every detail, send what you do know and we will work from there. For urgent work, add your deadline first so the team can check production time before quoting.
- Type of item needed, such as business cards, flyers, posters, banners or stickers
- Quantity required and whether you need extras for reprints
- Finished size or the size you want us to work to
- Paper or material preference if you already have one in mind
- Single-sided or double-sided printing
- Delivery or collection preference from the Randfontein CBD base
How the quoting process works at our Randfontein base
Once your request comes in through the enquiry form on our contact page, the team checks the job details and matches them to the most suitable print method. Digital print is usually the fastest option for short runs, rush jobs and business items that need a quick turnaround. If artwork needs adjustment, we will include the time needed for that too.
Our production team in Randfontein keeps an eye on practical issues like paper stock, finishing time and machine availability, especially when load-shedding or high order volumes may affect the day. If a job needs folding, trimming, lamination or sticker cutting, that is worked into the quote so you know what to expect before you approve anything.
- We confirm the scope of the job
- We check artwork readiness and any layout changes needed
- We price printing, finishing and setup where relevant
- We send a clear quotation for approval
- We move ahead once you are happy to proceed
Artwork help if your files are not ready yet
Not every customer has a print-ready file on hand. If your logo is old, text is out of date or the layout needs a clean-up, send what you have and we will advise on the next step. Our graphic design support covers logo refreshes, flyer design, poster design, banner artwork, sticker design, menu layout, brochure layout, form design, print ready artwork, artwork redraws and proofing updates.
For best results, send high-resolution artwork where possible and tell us if the print must match an existing colour or brand look. If you are printing for a shop front, market day, church function or municipal noticeboard, mention the setting so we can advise on size and finish. For example, outdoor banners in Mogale City or Roodepoort may need a stronger finish than an indoor poster.
- Best file format if available: PDF, high-res JPG or PNG
- Send all text exactly as it should appear
- Let us know if you need us to correct spelling or spacing
- Tell us if the print will be used indoors or outdoors
Fast quoting for West Rand businesses with tight deadlines
We regularly assist businesses in Krugersdorp, Westonaria, Mogale City and Roodepoort that need same-day or next-day print work. If your deadline is tight, say so clearly in the first line of your request. That helps us see whether the job can move through production, finishing and collection in time.
Short runs for cards or flyers can often be turned around faster than larger banner or brochure orders. If you need materials for a promotion, tender submission, event, funeral notice, launch or in-store special, it helps to tell us the exact time you need them. The more precise the deadline, the easier it is to plan the print slot and avoid delays.
We also factor in local practicalities such as courier timing, traffic into the CBD and collection times for nearby areas like Greenhills, Toekomsrus and Mohlakeng. That way the quote reflects what is actually possible on the day, not just the print cost.
Choosing quantities, sizes and finishes without guesswork
If you are unsure how many pieces to order, think about how the items will be used. A small sales team may need only a few hundred cards, while a weekend promotion can use a few thousand flyers very quickly. Posters for a noticeboard may need a different size from posters intended for windows or public walls. If you are comparing options, we can quote more than one quantity so you can choose the best fit for your budget.
Finishing choices also affect the final price and the look of the job. Laminated cards, folded brochures, trimmed flyers and cut stickers all need different production steps. If your print will be handled often, displayed outside or packed into customer orders, say so and we will suggest a suitable finish. Coastal humidity is not a major issue in Randfontein, but dust, handling and frequent use still matter for many business items.
- Tell us if you want economy, standard or premium stock
- Ask for two quantity options if you are comparing prices
- Mention whether trimming, folding or lamination is needed
- Include any special shape or cut-line requirements for stickers or labels
Who handles your quote and follow-up
Quotes at @Print are handled by a practical team that knows the work from start to finish. Thabo Johannes Mokoena oversees the business, while Bianca Naidoo manages client service and Megan Botha handles sales support. Lerato Ndlovu manages production, Willem van Zyl operates the main print equipment, Anele Dlamini assists with artwork, Kagiso Molefe supervises finishing and assembly. That means your request is not passed around blindly, it reaches the right person quickly.
If a quote needs clarification, we will ask for only the missing details needed to price the job properly. That might be a size, a paper choice, or whether you want the artwork redrawn. Once the quotation is ready, you can review it and decide whether to proceed. Simple, clear and without unnecessary back and forth.
