I have now used Print Smith perhaps 6 times for a series of small projects. This is about as stress-free an operation as you could wish for. The employees are always lucid, clear thinking, and both knowledgeable and friendly. Prices here are the same as you could get if you tortured yourself by trying to get Staples or Office Depot to do it. Local and competent. Well done!

I recently took an old hand written recipe book into Print Smith to have copies made. Sam was helping me figure out the best way to take apart the original and make the new copies that would not only be stronger in the binding but also be exactly what I wanted. Kim, the owner was nearby and overheard our discussion and with a smile brought out to show me a hand written cookbook from her grandmother that she had preserved, such a thoughtful thing to do. Sam looked for ways to make the project cost effective and everyone was so friendly. I am so pleased that I discovered this fabulous local resource.

I had an amazing experience working with the team at Print Smith. Kim, Randsom and everyone else was extremely helpful in getting a last minute project executed and the job looked stunning! I was leaving for NYC the next day, and everyone was a huge help to make sure my Spring 2017 Catalogues were ready to go!

I was at my nearby vacation home working on my laptop when I realized I needed to print some documents and did not have a printer. I used Yelp to locate a "copy center" as I was not familiar with where to go. Several places came up but I liked that this place was a small "mom and pop" shop. I got excellent service from Jasmine! She promptly answered the phone, told me to email my documents to her and she would print them in minutes. She was very knowledgeable, helpful and worked quick. The price was right too! I highly recommend this place for all your printing needs.

Print Smith was great to work with for printing a color memorial service program for my Dad. Owner Kim and staffer Ryan were very helpful and kind. I didn't comparison shop based on price (which was a little expensive but this may be the going rate, I have no idea). I chose them because of locational convenience and their good reviews on yelp. The programs were done on time, correctly and looked terrific. Everyone I came in contact with was very helpful. Thank you Kim, Ryan and Jasmine!

I cannot say enough about about Print Smith and its owner. The owner of this local shop (I think her name is Kim) went above and beyond to help me figure out the best way to size and reproduce my project. I went in totally confused and frustrated and came out with something that exactly fit my needs! And she's right in my local village! Thanks Kim!

I've been using Printsmith for years. As a Graphic Designer, I have had to throw some pretty tight deadlines and crazy projects at them. Kim and her crew have always come through for me. For a small, local printer -- I'm always a little surprised at just how many services they do offer and they seem to keep growing and offering more. Great turnaround on quick projects.

My professor has chosen Print Smith as THE place to have our (out of print) text printed. (several professors choose to have Print Smith individually publish our texts) the woman who greeted me at the door was very friendly, until i told her i was there to pick up a copy of our book. immediately her demeanor changed & she was very rude & made it completely clear that she knows i have no other choices. after feeling so completely disrespected, i decided to buy a beat-up 1996 original pressing off Amazon. usually i am VERY particular about shopping locally, but today i feel that the extra $10 i spent online was worth my self respect. a computer screen can't give me that look an 8year old gets from her mom when she asks for dessert before eating dinner. when i get to class today i will be sure to announce to my classmates that i wrote this review.

Knowledgable, helpful, patient staff. And excellent print quality. I needed to color-print some pages from a PDF, so I called UPS first and got a drawn-out rookie response, pretty annoyingly uninformed, so when I next called Print Smith I was relieved to be in good hands. The gentleman on the phone told me I could bring in my document on a thumb drive or email it to them or upload it directly, and said that when I came in to the store we could consult on paper quality and price points. Great!
I went straightaway and was helped by a lovely gal who was very understanding when I had to tell her how to sort through the many files on my thumb drive to find the correct two to print. She went to the back of the store to do the print job, and returned a couple times to consult: once to give me the total price (something like $0.75 per page, on heavy-duty, slightly shiny paper) and again when I reconsidered and asked to print only a smaller portion of my document.
All with a smile. Besides, I love that this store is so community-oriented that both walls are lined with watercolors by a local artist (for sale, should you be interested) (the art, not the artist), and the gorgeous greeting cards (3 for $10) are by a handful of other local and very talented artists. Nice to look at while you wait for the printer to finish, and nice to feel a part of the arts community.

The staff at Print Smith are extremely helpful and eager to assist me in getting the best deal which is helpful for the pocketbook. I have printed my non-prof flyers with a few other printers and Print Smith by far has the best quality. Not only do I get wonderful service, I am pleased to support a local business!

Worst place I ever had my business cards printed! The first time I went they told me to send a PDF file and I old pick them up in a couple of days, when I went back the girl gave me my cards with only pone side printed (when I had given her a file for two color sided), she accused me of not sending the other side or wrong file, when I send her to double check she noticed she had messed up, but blamed it on someone else; didn't even aologize.
I come back again to get my cards with both sides printed and the colors were completely off! Another lady said it was my fault! This is the same file I've used for other printing offices and have always been consistent even through different print businesses. They made me feel like it was my mistake twice! blamed it on their coworkers and didn't even apologize! Worst customer service!

I've used Print Smith a couple of times, most recently to print postcards featuring my food and event photography. It goes without saying that the visual presentation of my work has to be of high quality otherwise I could miss out on valuable opportunities. They did a beautiful job, actually the color quality (which was my primary concern) exceeded my expectations, I was beyond impressed. Months later the colors are still just as vibrant as the day I received my order, but the best part my current and prospective clients are equally impressed with my presentation. I recommend Print Smith to my clients with confidence.

The team at Print Smith was a pleasure to work with. I was needing a relatively simple transaction (print an email, and fax it), but the local UPS store had some hardware problems. I called Print Smith, and was cheerfully told they could help me. $2 and a few smiles later, I was on my way. Parking is easy too. Thank you Print Smith

When I was unemployed, they were easy to use. Made my resume, and did a good job. Used them many times usually with good outcome. Unfortunately, Now that I'm working 8-5PM, I find there only open when I'm at work. I live near them, so I'd prefer to use them, but they closed. Closed on the weekends, too? I asked for the manager. She was curt, and somewhat unpleasant, especially, when I suggested they should be open till 6PM. Bottom line, they forced me to use someone else, not a good way to stay in business. Bruce

Best printing & copying services in Aptos. And it's located in the heart of Aptos Village. The best part of Print Smith is the friendly staff that is knowlegeable. So you know you'll get your project done correctly the first time. Unlike other printing companies Print Smith is a family owned and run business.
