InstaPrints is a full-service commercial print shop on Elm Street. Business cards, banners, booklets, labels and signage — proofed by a human, printed in-house, shipped nationwide.
What we print
Everything below is produced at 525 Elm Street on our own equipment, which is why we can promise a date and keep it.
16pt matte, soft-touch, linen and 32pt duplex stocks with spot UV, foil and painted edges. Letterhead, envelopes and notepads printed to match.
13oz scrim vinyl, mesh, foam board, coroplast yard signs and retractable stands printed on our latex large-format machines.
Saddle-stitched and perfect-bound books, spiral menus and program guides on coated or uncoated text weights.
Die-cut vinyl stickers, roll labels, tamper seals and short-run folding cartons for food, beverage and retail brands.
How it works
Upload a print-ready PDF or a rough sketch. We accept almost anything and will tell you what needs fixing.
A digital proof lands in your inbox with paper, size and finish spelled out. Nothing prints until you say go.
Your job is printed, cut, folded and finished in our Elm Street shop, not brokered out to a stranger.
Collect in Albany, take local courier delivery, or have it shipped anywhere in the US with tracking.
Reviews
We reorder appointment cards every quarter and they have never been late. Daniel actually calls when he spots a spelling issue in our file instead of just printing it.
Our bag labels have to survive a freezer and a wet counter. They matched the stock, printed a sample first, and the color is identical to the batch from last year.
Twelve yard signs and two retractable banners in three days before an open house weekend. Pickup was ready when they said it would be.
Why InstaPrints
Low-resolution logos, missing bleed and RGB blacks get flagged before press, not after you have paid for 5,000 flyers.
Your job never leaves the building until it is boxed. That is how we keep dates honest and reprints rare.
Published starting prices, itemized quotes and no surprise setup fees added at invoice time.
We keep a color profile on file for returning customers so batch two matches batch one.
Most house papers are available in FSC-certified or 30% post-consumer options at no extra cost.
Phone calls go to the shop floor during business hours. Email is answered same day, Monday through Friday.
Send your artwork or a rough idea. Daniel or one of the crew replies with a firm price and a production date, usually within a few business hours.
