Print Master

I am a local owner in Decatur and I come here a few times. they did my wedding invites that turned out amazing. Now a copier machine is not cheap and if closing a copier machine is going to prevent it from messing up than you need to get over it. Sorry but that is crazy funny. Sorry Print Master but that review should not be on there.

So expensive even if you bring your own paper. I love supporting local business but I just feel like they take advantage and charge what they want and not fair price.

I needed to make copies of three chapters of an expensive hardcover library book. For seven cents a page, I was able to make my copies with relative ease. I know my way around a copier and was able to adjust the settings quickly after a false start: the copier was set to «automatic page sizing» and thus printed a horizontal 8×17 rather than the vertical 8×11 that I desired.
The owner instructed me upon entering that I was to close the copier lid before making each copies. I was copying 44 pages, and somewhere around page 20 I became lazy and started copying without closing the lid, as I do often at the library copier or at FedEx. After about four lazy-​copies, the owner came up to me and asked me to close the lid completely. I complied. So heads-​up to all you fellow occasional rule-​breakers: close the copier lid!
One has to count one’s copies at the cash register, as the copier does not tally them automatically like the FedEx copiers do. I paid in cash; I’m not sure if they take credit cards, or if they do but look askance at you if you wish to.
I can’t speak to their other services, but for copying: they’re golden.

My husband and I were strolling downtown Decatur, when I grabbed my phone and Googled «Printing Services» and Print Masters was just a walk down the block. I needed some documents printed and spiral bound, and thought to look up a local business instead of heading to the Kinkos by our house.
I emailed them the PDF right there (love my iPhone!), and they had it printed and bound in 15 minutes.
Much cheaper than FedEx or Kinkos, too!
I docked a star, because the employee helping me didn’t know how to open the PDF I’d mailed him, and had to wait for another employee to come back from lunch. I think it’s cute and I wasn’t in a hurry, but if you’re in this kind of business, that really is something to know.

This place isn’t Franklin’s anymore, it’s a single proprietorship called PrintMaster. Charged me full rate for the second side of double-​sided copies, didn’t show me the procedure for setting up the self-​serve station (the settings were hard to understand), then charged me for my mistakes… including one the attendant had made.

This place totally helped me out of a potentially nervous breakdown-​inducing jam. So, to save money on my wedding, I decided to buy the do-​it-​yourself invitations from Target. Worst. Idea. Ever.
Even though I had access to a nice printer, it just didn’t work. So, I called Kinkos, and they would have had to «outsource» the job to Franklin’s. I show up totally frantic at Franklin’s promptly when they open, explained what I needed, and left totally expecting never to get the invitations to my wedding out b/​c I was sure something else would go wrong. Nope. He had 4 sets of invitations and reply cards printed in 2 days. They looked wonderful, and the pricing was reasonable. Franklin’s saved the day, and saved my poor fiancé’ from having to figure out how to deal with my crazy ass (at least that day)!
