How to place an order with Greenerprinter

STEP 1: Choose Products

  • Select product(s) from the menu on the left, or from the "VIEW PRODUCTS" page. If you choose a product from our Design Center, or one of our "Self-Serve" products, the first step will also include the process of creating and/or uploading your artwork. Select the appropriate paper, size, fold, colors, etc. for your item.

  • If you can't find a product on our list that matches the item(s) you wish to print, choose "Custom Sizes" to enter your own spec's.

  • For projects that require spot colors, custom diecutting, embossing or other special treatments, visit the "Custom Quote" page, and we will email you a custom quote that you can then use to begin your order.

After you've entered all of the spec's for an item, click "ADD TO CART" and you will be taken to the shopping cart page. If you wish to order more items, click "KEEP SHOPPING" (or select a new product from the menu on the left). You may add as many items as you wish to your shopping cart, and you can edit (or remove) them at any time prior to checkout.

Once all of the items you wish to order are in your cart, give each of them a name, and click "CONTINUE".

STEP 2: Login and Shipping

Login to your account, or create an account. Account creation requires no personal information other than name and email address.

Our shipping options are the most flexible of any printer on the web!

If there is only one item to be shipped in your cart, you will see this button:

Shipping 

Which will offer the following options:

  • Select multiple destinations and shipping methods
  • Select a different quantity for each destination
  • Pickup your order at our Berkeley, CA location

If there are multiple items to be shipped in your cart, you will see these buttons:

Single Shipment 

Choose "Single Shipment" if:

  • All of your items are going to the same destination, and can arrive at the same time
  • - or -
  • You wish to pickup all of your items at our Berkeley, CA location


Multiple Shipments 

Choose "Multiple Shipments" to set up different shipping options for each item in your cart. When you are done with each item, clicking "Submit" will move you to the next item in the list. Submitting options for the final item in the list will automatically take you to "Checkout".
Select "Multiple Shipments" if you wish to:
  • Select multiple destinations and shipping methods for each item
  • Select a different quantity for each destination
  • Ship items separately as they are completed

You may choose "Next Day Local Delivery" if you live within a 15-mile radius of our Berkeley, CA location.

If Greenerprinter will be mailing all of your items, you will automatically skip the shipping step and proceed directly to checkout.


STEP 3: Checkout

  • Review all information. You may still edit any item in your cart.
  • Enter billing preference. Choose from:
  • Enter any additional special instructions.
  • Click "PLACE ORDER".
On the next page, you will see a final summary of your order, plus two buttons:
Print Confirmation 

Click this button to print out a hardcopy (or PDF) of your final order specifications. You will also receive an email confirming your order.

Upload Files 

Click this button to proceed to step 4, uploading files.
 

STEP 4: Upload files (or invite a colleague to upload)

You may upload files at any time, but please note that your turnaround time will not begin until we have 1) received and approved your final output files and 2) received your final approval of a proof.

If you are ordering items only from the Design Center or "Self-service" sections of our site, you will not be required to upload files or approve a proof, as this is done automatically during the ordering process. In this case, your items will automatically be set to status 4, "Proof Approved, Awaiting Printing".

For all other products, two "upload slots" are provided for each item in your cart, but you may upload as many files as you wish by clicking "add more files...". We strongly recommend you send a final "Press-ready" PDF file, but we are also happy to accept application files (QuarkXpress, InDesign, Illustrator, etc). To remove a file you've already uploaded, simply click "remove".

You can also invite one or more colleagues to upload files on your behalf by clicking "INVITE". Your colleagues will immediately be sent an email with an upload link. Be sure they know the name and parameters of the item(s) for which they're uploading files, as the upload page will allow them to place files for any item in the cart.

After you've finished with this page, you can either click "View Account" to confirm the details of your order, or click "Keep Shopping" to continue browsing our site.

If you have any questions, please visit our Frequently Asked Questions page, or send an email to csr@greenerprinter.com, or click on the "Chat" button at the top of this screen for a real-time chat with a GP customer service representative (when available).
