Policy 1 – Print Department Policy

Policy 1.1 – Production and Printing

Taste of Ink guarantees prints will not be defective in accordance with CMYK industry standards for “pleasing color ”. All reasonable efforts shall be made to obtain the best possible color reproduction on customer’s work. Exact color matches can’t be guaranteed between customer’s artwork, photography, files or previously printed materials due to the inherent variations in the print process. CMYK printing can shift up to 7% in color due to the inherent nature of press calibration in large format printing. Color may shift slightly during the course of a single press run and may vary between separate runs. If color accuracy/matching is critical for silk or plastic products, Pantone inks are recommended. Additional fees will apply for Pantone colors on all silk and plastic products.

Taste of Ink does not guarantee color will match the preview as it appears on a customer’s monitor, as we cannot compensate for color variance on each customer’s monitor. Taste of Ink is not responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions from RGB to CMYK color modes. We recommend all custom designs be designed in CMYK and uploaded in CMYK. If you are unable to supply CMYK color files we can convert them but be aware that many of the colors in RGB are not reproducible in CMYK and we cannot guarantee color accuracy in conversion.

If you have any questions, please ask a Taste of Ink representative before an official print approval has been submitted for production.

Policy 1.2 – Proofs

A digital proof of work will be submitted for the customer’s approval prior to printing. We recommend that customers carefully review all submitted print files to prohibit error. No liability is accepted by Taste of Ink for any errors not corrected by the customer on proofs. Files uploaded by the customer arestrongly recommended to be300dpi or greater to avoid low quality print files.

Policy 1.3 – Production Turnaround and Shipping

Our posted turnaround times for printing begin ONLY after Taste of Ink has received your approved digital proof. Turnaround times do not include shipping and are calculated as business days not including weekends or holidays. Be sure to factor this into your schedule.

Print orders are to be shipped within 12 to 14 business days except for Plastic Cards and Presentation Folders, which are to be shipped within 14 to 18 business days. All listed turnaround times are estimates and are not guaranteed deadlines.

Shipping companies require a physical address to deliver to as they provide a door to door service. POBox addresses are not valid for delivery.

Shipping Tariffs/Tax

Tariff rate and policy for print materials and business cards differ by nation. Therefore, we cannot provide specific information. However, it is possible to deliver to most of the nations without special tax. If tariff is levied, this will be paid by the customer.

Delays, while rare, may occur. In no case shall Taste of Ink be liable for any consequential or damages resulting from any delay in shipment or delivery due to unexpected equipment failure, malfunction and or technical problems. In case of delay caused by technical difficulty, express order charges/fees will be refunded or waived where applicable. However, technical difficulty will not be the grounds for order cancellation.

Shipment and delivery dates are calculated based upon estimates provided by the shipping companies we utilize. All customers agree not to hold Taste of Ink liable for delays in shipments caused by shipping companies, international customs issues or any other circumstances beyond our direct control.

***Turnaround times and shipping times are estimates ONLY and are not guaranteed.

Policy 1.4 – Reprints

All complaints regarding print defects must be brought to the attention of the Taste of Ink print department within 21 days of receipt of order to be considered or reviewed. In the absence of such a claim or after 21 days, the work shall be deemed to have been received, checked and accepted as fully complying with the customer’s specifications. In the case of print errors, please send an email to print@tasteofink.com with a description of the print defect. Please submit at least two high resolution photos clearly showing the defect. One showing a close up of the defected area and the other showing an overview containing 20 samples of the same issue. We further reserve the right to have the full product returned for evaluation if deemed necessary. In the event that we have printed a document incorrectly and it is found to be our fault then we will supply a full reprint without cost to you. If you alter the artwork prior to the reprint, change stock or product then this will be treated as a new order and be consequently charged for it.

Turnaround for reprints will be the same as standard turnaround times and Taste of Ink reserves the right to determine the method of shipping.

We are not responsible for any damages or claims incurred by you or your business caused by receiving printed materials which are defective or incomplete or which you receive later than the estimated delivery date.

Policy 1.5 – Order Returns, Cancelations or Refunds

Due to the custom nature of products we sell, reimbursements for products already on the press or printed are not possible. Partial refunds are available on orders that have begun processing but have not gone to press. A refund will be given for the portion of work that has not yet been completed. A $35 processing fee will be charged if we have already begun to create a proof and the order is cancelled by the customer. To cancel an order, call us at (877)-988-2783 or send email to either print@tasteofink.com orders@tasteofink.com.

Policy 1.6 – Copyrights

The customer warrants that the subject matter to be printed is not copyrighted by a third party. The customer also recognizes that because subject matter does not have to bear a copyright notice in order to be protected by copyright law, absence of such notice does not necessarily assure a right to reproduce. The customer further warrants that no copyright notice has been removed from any material used in preparing the subject matter for reproduction.

To support these warranties, the customer agrees to indemnify and hold Taste of Ink harmless for all liability, damages, and attorney fees that may be incurred in any legal action connected with copyright infringement involving the work produced or provided. The customer also warrants that the work does not contain anything that is libelous or scandalous, or anything that threatens anyone’s right to privacy or other personal or economic rights.

Once the brief has been submitted the project is considered initiated, the delivery timeframe begins and cancelation of the project from this point forward may result in the loss of fees paid.

It is possible that through the course of a design project that the creative efforts do not align with client expectations. In the event that the client wishes to cancel a design project before completion, a partial refund may be considered. Because design fees are based on time spent in development of concepts and not a specific result, cancellation prior to delivery of initial comps may still be subject to 50% fee.

If a designed file or project has been on hold for over 90 days, the file is immediately closed. We reserve the right to charge a cancelation fee of 15% plus an incremental progress fee for the percentageof the project that has been completed before the balance of the project is refunded.However, the client may request assets at any time for items paid in full. This includes: logo design, business card design, brochure design, letterhead design, envelope design, etc. Please note that communication is not considered a revision. A revision includes multiple proofs being sent to the client. The design project may be reopened by purchasing another project after review.
