Large Format Printing Since 1949
While we have been printing since 1949, Blueprintsprinting.com is a new venture - aimed at bringing convenient, large-format printing to you directly. No one else offers instant, no-hassle, price quotes on blueprints. No one else is as affordable, quick, and convenient as we are. With us you can get a quick quote, completely online, with no need to talk with customer service reps (although we do have them standing by in case any questions or issues arise). Our competitive pricing and efficient logistics ensure that our plans are affordable and get to you quickly. We currently have six print shops to serve you: Salt Lake City, UT; Las Vegas, NV; Bethlehem, PA; Austin, TX; Indianapolis, IN; and Jacksonville, FL covering about 95% of the United States population with either 1-day or 2-day UPS Ground Shipping. We print and ship orders the same business day, nationwide, in the order received for any order placed before 11 AM Local Time. We also offer overnight and priority overnight shipping options as well.
We are also bringing this same customer focus to our construction software platforms, from bid and plan room software to innovative new modules so groundbreaking that we don't want to explain them just yet. We are building tools that will help you communicate, advertise, collaborate, and run your jobs efficiently and will ensure that you are getting the absolute best value for the money you spend. We make it affordable, modular (so you use only what you need), and easy-to-use; because we know that every moment spent on extraneous details is a moment lost actually building the project.
Making your job easier is what we are all about. Helping you build, communicate, and pull resources together efficiently. We started by redefining how you get the prints that you need, and by giving you a platform that lets you know immediately what your printing project is going to cost (much less than anywhere else). This is only the beginning of what we aim to do to improve construction project management and efficiency.
Our Process
How we do it
You upload your blueprints, construction plans, spec books, and/or other documents in PDF format to your media manager inside your Blueprintsprinting.com account; then you select your paper, binding, and print specifications from easy-to-understand drop down menus; enter your shipping addresses and credit card information; and place your order. Choose "Blueprint" for large documents and "Specbook" for 8.5x11. It is as simple as that!
Our machines are also much less expensive than the typical inkjet technology, and the prints do not need to dry for 50 minutes like a typical inkjet print. Compare our color prints at $3.30 for ARCH D (24x36) to the typical print price of $15 or more. When you compare those numbers and reduce the plan size by 75%, you will realize that you can print color at almost the same price as black & white. When compared to the added clarity you get with color, and the reduced misinterpretation of plans, it makes color a very attractive option for printing.
Construction plans, blueprints, and engineering drawings are printed using a very high-quality 1200X1200 DPI, at 4 ppm to 32 ppm (24X36 page per minute). For Tyvek and Mylar, we use a waterproof ink process, which makes a great pairing with Tyvek plans for your job site trailers (waterproof and weatherproof drawings on Tyvek)! We try to constantly update our equipment to lower cost, increase speed, and better serve you.
- Save Money
- Communicate more clearly
- Reduce the time it takes to convert drawings to prints
- Get Your Job there on -time!
- Win-win-win!!!
How quickly will it get to me?
Our service delivers your prints to you, where you need them, at either expedited (additional charges apply), or regular business speeds. We generally print and ship orders the same day that they are received (our average turnaround time is 2 hours). Normal jobs submitted to us before 11AM print and ship that day and deliver in 1 to 3 days nationwide. We offer UPS Overnight, 2-Day, or Ground. Typical time to delivery in the continental United States is 1 to 2 business days depending on the zip code and method of shipment. We have six locations in Salt Lake, UT; Bethlehem, PA; Jacksonville, FL; Austin, TX; Indianapolis, IN; and Las Vegas, NV. Because of the volume that we ship, we can keep our shipping rates low for you.
