*More information in product details and file set up tab.
ADDITIONAL FEES FOR PROCESSING 2ND PROOF
The first proof for each order is free (included in the printing price). Replacing any files after the first proof has been sent will result in additional charges for each file replacement, as files would have to be reprocessed.
A $20.00 reprocessing fee applies to all products. Each round of reprocessing will require the additional fee to be paid.
COLOR PROOFING, MATCHING & PRINTING
EZ Online Printer is not liable for color matching or ink density on screen proofs approved by Customers. Screen proofs will predict design layout, text accuracy, image proportion and placement, but not color or density.
EZ Online Printer will try its best to match the gradient density of each color, but EZ Online Printer is not liable for the final appearance of a color.
Important: Gang-run printing is the process by which multiple (and different) customer jobs are combined on a large print sheet and are run at the same time. For example, we lay out 65 different customer business cards and postcards on one gang-run sheet, and run the sheet 1000 times to get 65 sets of 1000 cards. Each card set is a different card. This process allows us to spread the expensive initial setup cost of running a full-color offset print run among 65 customers.
The application of High Gloss UV Coating may affect or change the appearance of printed colors. EZ Online Printer is not liable for the final color appearance of High Gloss UV-coated product’s.
Greeting Cards: High-quality, full-color digital printing for quantities of 25 and 50. We cannot guarantee the facility in which your order will be printed. In the case of a mechanical issue in one of our facilities, we may print your order in another facility to ensure you receive your order in a timely manner.
ENVELOPES AND LETTERHEADS PAPER EFFECT DUE TO COLOR
Please note that because our letterhead and envelope paper stock is “uncoated”, we do not recommend using colors with high color density. By this we mean dark colors (black, purple, blue, brown, etc). Dark colors tend to get soaked into the paper if their color values are too high. For best results, use light colors.
STICKERS AND ROLL LABELS
Stickers and Roll Labels have not been approved for safety for use on food packaging or for direct contact with food. Do not apply Stickers and Roll Labels to already frozen materials.
ORDER CANCELLATION
EZ Online Printer will be happy to help you cancel your order prior to Approval. However, orders may be eligible for cancellation upon request via email. Our Customer Service Team will inform you of any cancellation charges depending on the stage of the order.
If a job is canceled, any labor hours (proofs, graphic design work, etc.) or administrative fees (credit cards fees, etc.) will be subtracted from your refund. The minimum is $15 (15%-30% of the total transaction).
There is a NO REFUND policy for Logo and Graphic Design Service orders that have been placed.
All work and services rendered to Customer remains EZ Online Printer’s property until Customer has paid for it and discharged all other debts owing to EZ Online Printer. If Customer misuses service(s) in any way, EZ Online Printer reserves the right to contact the parties responsible for the misuse, and demand the cost for the service(s).
RETURNS AND REFUNDS
Since each order is unique to customer and has no re-sale value, All Sales Are Final. If we verify that we made an error, we will re-print the order. No Refunds or Credit.
Customer must notify EZ Online Printer within 6 business days of order acceptance to notify any defects discovered in the ordered product. In order to receive replacement, Customer must return 100% of the received product within 15 days (on their own expense) from the time when the ordered product delivery was taken.
All charges related to expedited printing (Rush Printing or Shipping) are NOT REFUNDABLE, including for those orders that are returned for any reason. All orders that are being returned must be shipped by Customer’s own expense.
ORDER SHIPPING & DELIVERY
EZ Online Printer will always act to make sure that any production difficulties do not delay delivery schedules. In no case shall EZ Online Printer be liable for any consequential or damages resulting from any delay in shipment or delivery.
All EZ Online Printer customers agree not to hold EZ Online Printer liable for delays in shipments caused by weather conditions, shipping company delays, international customs issues or any other circumstances beyond EZ Online Printer’s direct control. EZ Online Printer shipment and delivery dates are calculated based upon estimates provided by our suppliers.
EZ Online Printer will always act to make sure that delivery schedules are met. However, unexpected equipment failure, malfunction and or technical problems may delay the printing process. In case of delay caused by technical difficulty, rush charges/fees will be refunded or waived where applicable. However, technical difficulty will not be the grounds for order cancellation.
Orders that will be picked up: Please allow up to one additional business day after the turnaround to prepare packages for pickup.
Orders that will be shipped: Please allow one additional business day for receipt of labeling and billing information before counting turnaround time for shipping. For example, if you are quoted a shipping time of 3 business days from February 3rd, please allow the first day for EZ Online Printer to relay your information to the shipping carrier for the arrival scan, and the following 3 business days/non-holidays for your shipment to arrive.
Please be advised that we do not combine different items or orders for shipping. Due to the nature of gang-run printing, each item may be placed on a separate batch, and each batch may be completed at a different time than the rest of the items on the order. Thus, we ship each item separately to ensure you receive your products as soon as they are ready. We may combine shipping for items that have the same options, such as paper stock, quantity, etc.
NEXT DAY AM/PM SERVICE SHIPPING METHOD

Customs policies vary widely from country to country. EZ Online Printer does not have control over these fees, nor can we predict the exact cost of these fees. We are not responsible for informing you of the specific fees that will apply; it is your responsibility as the importer and the customer to check what your country’s requirements are for all customs fees, before placing your order. You are responsible for contacting your local customs office for further information. Please be advised that when customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. This excludes Canadian orders.
All shipments of $17 dollars or more to Canada are subject to “Custom Clearance Fees” (these duties are included in our shipping and handling charges). All shipments of $17 dollars or more are also subject to Canadian taxes: HST, GST, PST, and QST, depending on their ship to address. Customers are responsible for payment of all duties and taxes. Shipping rates for high-quantity products depend on the customers access to a shipping dock and forklift, otherwise additional charges may apply.

MAIL INNOVATIONS (ECONOMY) SHIPPING METHOD FOR INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
