The Jax Paper Co. story
Founded on March 1, 2012, Jax Paper Co. is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Creative Printing Place, Inc. which was founded May 1, 1973. The opportunity arose for us to open the paper business when a large international business closed its local location. Knowing paper as well as we do from our decades in the printing industry, we decided we could offer clients the expertise they needed when searching for the best papers. The decision to open Jax Paper Co. was a successful one as we tripled the size of our initial space by more than 3 times in our eighteen months. We now have additional storage for the most commonly used papers in the back of our building allowing us to keep more in stock for those times when an emergency project comes up that requires thousands of sheets of paper. We keep adding to our selection based on what our clients use and keep trying out new lines of paper that offer more diversity for your projects. We will always do our best to help guide those who want the advice on which papers will work best for their use. We have many decades of experience to help you make the best choice.
Our Staff
We are being guided by a second generation printer who was raised in the printing business. Jax Paper Co. and its employees want you to get the best results from every project you are working on. That means we will take the time needed to find you the papers you are wanting for your projects. We are there to help you no matter your skill level. If you know what you need without any guidance, our goal is to help you get the paper in your hands so you can get working on your project without delay. If you need more help choosing the correct stock, we are there to put our decades of experience to work for you. We can advise on what papers will produce photos the best, what will show off a particular color the best, as well as what will probably not work that well. We have swatch books that show how different types of printing look on different colors and finishes just ask us to see them. Give us the chance to show you how much we want your business and you'll leave our shop with the paper you need and want!
Paper Expert Tips & Tricks
When setting up your printing project either for you or us to print there are some things to keep in mind. If the image bleeds, goes all the way to the edge or edges of the paper, then you need to allow printing on oversized paper to be cut down after printing. We can cut for you if needed. Also, set up your artwork with 1/8" extra image past where the trim will be so that we or you are not trying to cut right on the edge of the image. Most printing machines will have a little 'bounce' and from sheet to sheet will not be in exactly the same place. If you need more guidance we are more than happy to assist you with your project.
