Expensive Types of Printable Products

1.     Canvas Prints

Canvas Prints are said to be one of the most expensive items to print out, especially canvas prints such as Lyve canvas. However, printers differentiate the cost on each roll of canvas. Printers use inkjet printers to print out canvases, which helps to give it a sharp resolution.

2.     Wedding Invitations

Wedding invitations are one of the most expensive printable items. The prices vary around the method printers use to print out your invitations. You can print out your wedding invitations using digital printing, letterpress printing, offset and engraving. Methods such as engraving and letterpress involve a lot of manpower due to which it may cost you more. Wedding invitations are always printed in large amounts depending on the number of guests you invite. The higher number of prints you order, the higher the price. The packaging and extra add-ons of the invitation also adds to the cost; for example, if you want wax seals, or envelops liners, both of these cost more as they require solid colors.

3.     Sublimation Printing Fabrics

Printers use the process of Sublimation to print out different logos or images on products such as t-shirts, pillowcases, bags, table covers, mug coasters, or any other fabricated item. The sublimation process is known to be extremely costly after you add the cost of materials, and especially if you are placing a big order, the price tends to increase. The process itself involves different methods such as heat-press, which cost a lot of money.

4.     Menus

Menus are another type of printable item that is expensive to print out. Menus require heavyweight paper. The thicker the paper is, the more expensive the cost of one print is. You may have come across many menus and have noticed the thickness of the sheet. The thickness is what gives the menu a vibrant and bold touch.

5.     Notebooks

Notebooks are also another expensive item to print out as it requires strong paperweight and notebooks normally consist of a large number of pages. Printers mostly charge you per page, hence the price depends upon the number of pages you want in your notebook. The format and cover also play a big role in the price of the notebook. If you require customized notebooks, then the printing costs will apply to the materials that the printer will use, such as gloss or matte lamination. Every notebook requires the process of binding especially if your notebook has a high page count. Binding requires a lot of physical effort which is another reason why printers charge high prices for big orders.

The materials dictate how expensive the finished print will be. For example, if your print project requires heavy stock paper and different heavy details, then you will definitely have to pay a higher amount even if your print outs consist of small items such as brochures and leaflets. You will come across these high material costs, especially if your print project consists of high-end print items.
