All prices set forth on the Site and stated herein are based on current costs and subject to change without notice and payment amounts and other terms may be subject to additional agreements between User and 48HourPrint.com. If a User submits an order on the Site to purchase printing products, promotional products, mailing services, design services or other services, the User agrees that all charges, taxes and shipping/handling fees will automatically be charged to the credit card or paid by User with an approved payment method.
Production of all items ordered is subject to the terms outlined below in the "Printing Turnaround Time" section, and will not begin until an order is fully paid, including shipping and handling fees, if applicable except where 48HourPrint.com has explicitly agreed to special delayed payment terms (e.g. Net 30) with the User prior to placing an order.

Proofs
If requested, an online proof will be available for your review after we have received your files for print. Actual time will vary depending on our current workload. Jobs eligible for Proof Approval Bypass will be sent to press in accordance with the program’s terms. It is the User's responsibility to log in to their account and check on their proof. We are not liable for delays in the order caused by User's non-approval of the proof. An online proof is by no means an accurate color reproduction of your final printed piece but is the final opportunity for you to check the layout, bleeds, crops and final text. Electronic proofs do not show transparency and over print issues, nor do they show color change from RGB or Pantone to CMYK.
The proof must be treated as independent from the original submitted file and thoroughly reviewed prior to approval. It should be checked against the original file for possible errors in layout, copy, spacing, punctuation or image placement. User is fully responsible for all that is contained in the final approved proof. 48HourPrint.com offers hard copy proofs which show reasonable likeness to the final printed pieces. Such proofs are recommended for color-critical art and must be requested by the User when the print order is made. Hard copy proofs are printed on a substrate different from the actual paper stock and while its main purpose is to show color, variations may occur depending on the finish selected (AQ, matte, UV) for the final print job. We do not offer hard copy proofs for art that would be printed on uncoated paper.
The request for a hard copy proof may involve an additional fee and would extend the amount of time needed to complete the job. For orders where a hard copy proof has been requested, the approval must be received by 48HourPrint.com on or before our published cut-off times. We will make every effort to match colors in production when a hard copy proof is requested. However, it is the User's responsibility to determine if they need a hard copy proof with their print order.
Proof Approval Bypass
Once a User receives a proof, they have 3 business days to approve or reject the proof. In the event a User has taken no action, the proof will be deemed to have been approved by User and the order will proceed into production.
Cancellation
An order may not be canceled once it is "In Production". If the order is still in the preflight or proofing stage, it may be canceled subject to the following fees, when applicable:
- Orders placed, paid for and then canceled before 5pm PST on the same day may be refunded in full or booked as store credit to be applied to future orders;
- Orders below $100 will not be subject to cancellation fees.

Color Accuracy
48HourPrint.com will reproduce color from submitted print-ready files as closely as possible but cannot exactly match color and density (as viewed in a 5000K light booth). Because of inherent limitations with the printing process, as well as neighboring image ink requirements, the accuracy of color reproduction is not guaranteed. By placing an order with 48HourPrint.com, you agree to this limitation. We will try our best to match the gradient density of each color, but we accept no responsibility for color variations between submitted files and the final printed piece. Under no circumstances will a reprint be honored for color variations that have occurred during the printing process. We are not liable for color matching or ink density on screen proofs that you approve. Screen proofs will predict design layout, text accuracy, image proportion and placement, but not color or density. Application of UV coating may affect or change the appearance of the printed colors. We are not liable for the final color appearance of a UV coated product.
