Test Prints

Want to see a preview of your artwork before you go ahead with the full run? Order a test print to help you make your decision.

  • Files should be submitted in CMYK colour profile and at 300DPI.
  • If you’re after prints of an original painting, we recommend providing your files as a scan of your original piece, or a high resolution photo of your masterpiece with no visible background.
  • A copy of any aspect of the artwork that is to be printed in metallic should be included as a spot colour called “Silver” on the top-most layer within the artwork with overprint enabled and supplied as a PDF, AI or PSD file.
  • If you select the same paper twice, we’ll send you four prints – choose two different paper types so you can compare!

Our Papers

Unicorn White

Our trusty Unicorn White stock has been around since day one at PRINT.WORK. It’s part of our core paper range and is suitable for everything from bold colour art prints, business stationery, recyclable flyers and printed postcards.

It’s an uncoated stock made from 100% genuine de-inked post consumer waste and FSC® certified. Made in an industry leading mill to strict ISO 14001 standards for environmental management, our Unicorn White is processed chlorine free (PCF) significantly reducing water contamination from processing.

Finish:

Smooth to the eye, textured to touch. This is our whitest paper that we have available – although worth noting that it is not a bright white stock – it has a more natural finish, with dark flecks throughout.

Pros

  • Everyday printing
  • Full colour printing
  • Affordable art prints
  • Stationery

Notes

Due to the recycled nature of this stock, flecks may vary between batches

Large concentrations of ink can give your artwork a slight sheen once printed
