This place legit rocks. Dwain and the rest of his team are quick, professional, communicative, and simply know what they were doing. Almost like they know what you need before you even tell them! Very kind people as well. Can't recommend them enough.

I have been working with Zip Printing for many years. They provide almost all of our printed materials, envelopes, etc. Anything we need, anytime we need it, and the customer service is great! Dwain and his team really exceed expectations. I highly recommend Zip for all printing and copy needs.

We've relied on Zip printing for YEARS: holiday letters, invitations, last minute jobs. They are fantastic in all ways-responsive, with consistently high quality, flexible, friendly and personable-in short, they are our go-to place. Please support them with your business!

My mother had some holiday cards made by having Zip Printing use some of my daughter's (her granddaughter's) artwork and the end product looked absolutely fantastic. The copy quality and card stock were excellent.

Awesome print shop. I've used their service twice to print cards, and they have been very responsive to questions, quick to print, fairly priced, had good quality and super friendly staff. Highly recommend.

I had some last minute printing done at Zip for my wedding - the staff here are amazing (shoutout to Dwain!), so caring and have great expert recommendations. Everything turned out perfect and we had so many compliments! Not to mention the had everything ready the next business day. Will definitely be using again and cannot recommend them enough.

Fast Quality work Low prices Don't those three qualities make up the vendor 'triangle' -- you can't have all three at once or something? Zip Printing provides great work fast inexpensively. And with a smile. They might even throw in a freebie or two. And if it's anything to do with making a hard copy of something, Zip can do it.

I can't say enough good things about Zip Printing & Copy Shop and the people who work there. Everyone is so friendly, professional, and helpful. Our prints have always turned out great and were ready early. Will always go to Zip for printing needs.

We cannot say enough good things about our first experience at Zip Printing. We were referred to them by another small business for their experience, quality and quick-service and they were so easy to work with. Highly reccommend!

Zip's printing is fast and flexible! They have gone above and beyond making all of my printing stress free. I recommend this place to all my family & friends. Bonus: I love opportunities to support small businesses w/o sacrificing quality and this satisfies both.

Awesome Place. I went to the DMV and needed to print something that showed proof of residence. They were super helpful and made it super easy to email them the PDF of what I needed! I was in a rush and I was able to do everything in less than 5 mins! All staff was super nice and provided great customer service! I'll be back and will be recommending this place! Thank you again!

I am quite impressed! The owner gave me a quote on a print job to make 1000 little booklets, which seemed reasonable. Then he told me that there is another print company that has bigger equipment that can do the job for less money, and even looked up the other company's number for me. A very honest guy!

A solid 5 star review from me! I actually selected this place based on other reviews and I'm happy I did. I was very pleased with their customer service and my finished product! It's not easy to find establishments that 'get it right' from start to finish but that is what I found here and it was definitely appreciated! I needed funeral brochures, so it was not an easy process for me emotionally.

Both Cori and Dwain were sensitive, understanding, and helpful throughout the process. In my opinion, they are simply great people who do an awesome job and treat people the way they should be treated.

I'm so happy with the service and outcome of our trip to Zip Printing. My partner and I went to get our wedding programs printed with our own design and they completed it quickly and the result is so great! They centered and made sure the image was correct on both sides and cut the programs down perfectly. So glad we made a quick yelp search and found Zip.

I had a great experience today. Dwain gave me great customer service, I walked in with a flash drive and walked out minutes later with a cup of coffee, a stack of posters and a stack of prints. Price was reasonable and I think I probably had a better day because of my experience there.

My fiance (now wife!) and I had our wedding programs printed at Zip. Since the wedding was days away and they didn't have the color of paper we were interested in, Dwain suggested I bring in my own. After providing a pdf of the program and the paper, they had them printed and cut as I waited. While they were printing, Dwain asked about our Honeymoon and when I mentioned we were headed to the North Shore, he gave several suggestions for day trips and restaurants. Printing and spontaneous travel advice -- can't go wrong here!

These people are super friendly and nice. I am in California and needed to find a printer remotely for a client. Lovely people, quick service and great pricing.

Can't say enough about the quality of their product, their service, and friendliness. Coming to them from a small charter school to have a yearbook printed, they were absolutely top notch in helping me get our book printed at an affordable price and quick as well. They pull out all the stops in making sure you get what you want. The reason I went to this place in the first place were the awesome reviews on yelp, I was glad that they were not wrong.

As a graphic designer, I've been to my fair share of printers.and Zip tops them all! I was looking for a quality, local printer after moving to the Cities, and this is definitely the place. Fast, friendly, and great quality printing - all at a fantastic price! I came in with files on a flash drive and my own cardstock 11x17 sheets. I was greeted quickly and, with 8 pages, double-sided.in-and-out in 5 minutes.

Not only that, the woman who printed my order offered to run the entire job on their paper so I could check the quality and layout for free and without having to test on my own paper! Once I had the chance to look the test prints over, she printed the job on my sheets with no problem. Don't waste your time at any other printer-especially the big box places like FedEx/staples/officemax. Zip's print quality is 1000 times better and very affordable and friendly! I would definitely recommend Zip to any students or professionals needing to print a portfolio or design work! A+++

Wow! I always try to support local businesses, so I read the reviews and called Zip Printing for my wedding invitations. SO nice and responsive. Of course I was in a hurry, so I brought them in on a Friday and expected to have to wait until Monday to pick them up. Instead they printed them while I waited! They were printed on pearlized paper and didn't slip. Very beautiful and completely couldn't tell I did them myself. Thank you!

The best printer I have ever dealt with. EVER. Getting them the image to print was so easy, and they were very nice and polite and helpful in guiding me through selecting the right cuts and papers. Most importantly, though, they are really FAST. They've earned that "Zip" name! I called in a panic needing thousands of fliers printed and cut by the end of the day, and they were able to turn them around in hours. It was amazing. I highly recommend them!

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. Zip Printing is the epitome of great customer service and saved me from being voted the worst bridesmaid of 2013. I was behind the ball on getting some wedding shower invitations out and called them on a Friday at 5:45 to see how late they were open that evening. Cori answered and said they actually had closed at 5:30.

I asked her when they were open on Saturday and she said they were closed on Saturdays. At that point I was going to just take them somewhere else because I was expecting her to be like, "We're closed for the weekend, good luck!" but she asked me what I needed and I explained my situation. She said she would stay there so we could get them out.

When I arrived she already had envelopes set out and paper that she thought I would like. She was super knowledgeable and did not rush me at all - even though she was already staying way later than closing time! All in all, the process was efficient and so reasonably priced! I cannot say enough great things about this place. I will definitely be going back for all of my printing needs and you should too.

I've used Zip Printing for a few years now for odd jobs with my previous non-profit employer and my wedding invitations as of late. They stay true to their name and work silly fast. Their prices are competitive and often, they do work for larger places that farm out to them. Seriously. Ask Dwain, the owner. Sending high res pdf documents is never an issue and they make really crisp and professional type. I go for quality and keep coming back on price. They do great business and the personal touch of actually remembering me is vital.
