Every year, our firm sends out holiday cards to clients. Rather than pick and choose from the plethora of expensive, generic corporate (lame) holiday cards available, my boss is privy on sending out custom designed cards bearing our brand. For the past couple years, I have been tasked with designing them in-house. Originally the plan was to print them in-house, but with a job of this magnitude and a looming deadline, I had to outsource the printing. So with a CD-R containing the .EPS files, I sought the services of George at Swifty Printing. I needed 1200 full color front and back cards, printed, trimmed and folded in half. George was accommodating in the fact that we would be supplying our own paper which was purchased at Paper Zone beforehand. Gave me a quote which was well under budget and told me to come back tomorrow for a press check. Awesome! Press check was perfect, the color was spot-on and looked amazing considering they came off a digital press. A couple of days later I came back to pick up the job: 1200 cards printed, trimmed, folded, shrink wrapped and bundled in one box. Stuffing them into envelopes on the other hand still needs to be done in house however. Thank God for interns! My dealings with George and Swifty Printing couldn't have been any better. George is a real stand-up guy and looks out for all his customers, big and small. If you need a print job, take it to George! read more

Swifty Printing & Digital Imaging, Inc - @ corner of 3rd & Virginia - Printing Services Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I got in touch with Swifty to see if they could help with multiple oversized prints that We need it for an event the next day. The Manager, Ben, was very accommodating and extremely easy to work with. He asked me a few simple questions, I sent him an email with the information needed and he exceeded my expectations by not only getting the project done much earlier than expected, but went the extra mile to have them delivered right to my hotel. I highly recommend this business and look forward to working with them again! read more

I travelled to Seattle by train to attend the Casual Connect event. On the train, I realised I'd stupidly forgottten my biz cards. I checked Yelp and thought I'd call to see if they could provide an on the spot service. I called and was given a $300 quote to do an on the spot job. I declined. I could hear the opportunistic tone of the person on the phone, and knew from experience that he was not a person that I could do business with. I called Office Depot and took a leap of faith. I caught a taxi from Seattle station to 4th and Pike, where I was served promptly and a business card was made from scratch, with just a logo from Word - in 30 mins!!! For temporary replacement cards all the people I told the story to at the Casual Connect, were impressed with the card stock, design and actual cut and print quality. Because I rushed poor Andrei, he wanted to make it better, but I was really happy with his thoughtfully designed and laid-out design. The cost at Office Depot: $25. Best value, great service, great client attittude. Swiftly - please treat customers as if they have been doing business with printers for 20 years, and don't put a rush charge on it unnecessarily... it just makes people bitter. read more

I needed some giant posters printed for an event and this place pulled through and exceeded my expectations. They even delivered it to my office which I was surprised. I made the request at 5PM the night before and they delivered it to me in the morning. Super fast and reliable. I would totally use them again for last minute printing. read more

These guys are great. I designed a brochure for a local festival and they did a wonderful job. They quoted us at almost $2,000 less than some of the other local printers, and they were able to accommodate the not-as-common size of the brochure, which I really appreciated. They did a turnaround of 7,500 brochures (with no rush fees) in 48 hours, which was incredible! They were also very patient with me as I explained to them that I was a little wigged out to do such a large order and to be the only one proofing. They didn't complain when I had to send them 3 different versions of the brochure while I literally adjusted things by 10 pixels or less. (I'm a perfectionist, I know this!) But I just wanted to note their understanding and good attitude, as it's sometimes hard to come by. Look forward to working with them in the future! read more

Lost Art of Customer Service Found! Swifty Printing is by far my favorite printer to work with in Seattle. I have been a graphic designer for the last 10 years and have never met a more humble and customer oriented printer. My work has very tight turn around times and hot projects that come up monthly and I know that I can count on George and his team to support us. I've had the privilege to work with Swifty over the past 4 years. Even if there has ever been a printing mistake George ensures to make it right, not shifting blame or making excuses (even when the fault lay with me). Not only are they incredibly fast but they are very caring people, even up to delivery of our projects. My team and I always look forward to seeing their delivery driver Dan! Thank you Swifty for all the years of service and for your great heart! If you are in need of a reliable and fast service, these guys live up to their name to a T. read more

I have used Swifty Printing for years, and continue to do so. The secrets to a successful relationship with any business is find out what their strengths and weaknesses are and act accordingly. First of all, always speak to George. That's probably going to happen anyway, because these guys figured out that he's their best counter man anyway. Secondly, small runs of business cards for walk-ins are not their strong suit. In order to provide the kind of custom service that their regular customers demand, they have to price small one-off jobs for one-time customers pretty high so that they aren't distracted by those regularly. I don't think they feel a need to compete with Kinkos or even Abracadabra down the street. Those business have their places, too. Use them, I do. But if you've got a company brochure, high-quality poster or display job, or something wild and out of the blue, this is the place. They have never disappointed me. read more

Dealing with the brothers that run this place is great. They seem so damn happy to be in the printing business, offer great prices and really seem to care about their customers. When you enter their store, it looks like they are either about to go out of business or have just moved there. It's neither. They're just really messy. I like to think that they're too busy helping customers to clean up after themselves. read more

I highly recommend Swifty! I use them for 1-10 business projects every month. Tons of marketing collateral, flyers, brochures, banners, stationary, envelopes, etc. They always beat competitors prices (by a mile), and live up to their name. I am sometimes thrown off guard by how fast they are! I email them an order and next thing I know the order shows up at the door. They are always helpful when I need design assistance, and the quality of their work couldn't be better. I usually deal with Ben, who is extremely helpful and so nice! I've had such a good experience with them on business projects I decided to have them print save-the-date cards for my own wedding. And once again, blown away! read more

My company put me on a mission to make a sign. So I google mapped places that were near my company. Swifty Printing so happened to be close by so I decided to give them a visit to see what they were able to do for me. The owner of the print shop was really friendly and they were able to help me with making a sign right away. They were able to get the material I wanted as well as make the sign crisp and clean. They also were able to make the sign in one day, which was pretty surprising to me since the sign I had to get was pretty huge. Overall customer service was two thumbs up. The only thing was that their prices were a little overpriced. So if you don't wanna spend too much on prints then this might not be the right store for you. But if price doesn't matter and quality matters then you have found the right place! read more

Update to my earlier review, and it's a positive one. I had a somewhat larger job this time. The basic owner manual for our motorhome has 450 pages. I wanted the manual disassembled, scanned to a PDF file, and a copy printed. I was quoted a per-page price for the scanning and the printing. The total came to more than I was willing to pay. The gentleman at the counter quoted a more agreeable price, if I was willing to have it printed during the upcoming weekend, when business was slower. The total price was $113, plus tax. Considering the labor involved in taking apart the large, spiral-bound manual, scanning to a file, and printing, I felt that was a very fair price. The manual was ready on Monday, as promised. My only difficulty was determining which manual was the original. I finally remembered that the original's cover had been bent once. That's how I identified the original -- by flexing the cover. I hadn't expected that the cover would be printed in high-resolution color. Otherwise, it was very difficult to tell original from copy. These people are great! read more

Swifty Printing is where I get my books printed for local distribution. I developed a customer relationship with the owners of this family owned business years ago before I ever even thought of writing a book. Part of the reason I've written books is from the inspiration and encouragement I get from the Brothers that just love my writing. One of the things I like the most about the business is their desire to make sure that each customer is not only satisfied of their work but also happy as they leave out the doors; George Nickard (One of the owners) has a gift of being able to simply make people smile and be cheerful. I've seen the most stoic people walk out the doors smiling about something other than the work that they had done and to me, that's a beautiful thing. If you ever need any printing done or you simply have questions about a project, just stop by and I guarantee when you walk out of their doors, you'll simply be happier than you were before you went in. ~Paridon read more

Overall very happy with my experience here. George was particularly pleasant to deal with. Quality of their products definitely shows. I will be coming back here. read more

I've only printed posters with Swifty before, so I can't comment on the negative reviews for business card printing services. But I know that for posters, these guys are fabulous. Today, I had a 24x36" poster printed, trimmed, mounted on foam core, and delivered for free to our office (Belltown) in under 90 minutes. They didn't even break a sweat. And the quality is beautiful. read more

I worked with Swifty on a recent print job for a freelance client. At the press check, the client wanted a full design change (after the plates had been made)--and the job still needed be delivered in two days. Swifty was responsive from the day I called them, and worked with our schedule completely. It became a rush job on our end, not theirs. Working on the fly, we updated the files while standing there, with a handful of options for the client to choose from. Swifty was completely patient, thorough, helpful, and went 100% above and beyond. We printed multiple iterations so we could make sure the client was happy with what we would get, and they were kind enough to not charge for those color prints, which they had every right to do. Working back and forth with different computers/platforms we ran into a few bumps, so they even let me come and update the files on their computers. Once we had locked the final design, Swifty stayed an hour and a half AFTER their closing time to make sure I didn't feel rushed in prepping the files to go to press. They never made me feel like a hassle or an annoyance. There are some companies that truly go above and beyond, and this is certainly one of them. I recommend them completely, and will be taking all of my offset work to them. A special thanks to Ben Nikfard, and all the Nikfard brothers. I'm looking forward to working with them in the future. And to speak to the issue that Raychel F. faced, offset printing can be more expensive (and higher quality) than digital. So before you're angry about the cost, understand what you're asking for. read more

I'm writing this review because the firm I work for does quite a bit of business with George and co. But I'm not writing this in any official capacity, just from my interaction with them as the point person for handling these types of tasks. These guys are great! They handle highly sensitive information and photos with discretion. We've used them to produce trial exhibits, plenty of color photos for use as attachments, and to turn around larger printing projects that we can't do in house. They always have a quick turnaround time for us, and are able to meet our needs quickly and at a great price. Often, they'll have a project that was dropped off at 4:50 p.m. ready for us by 10 a.m. the next day. It's always a pleasant experience going over there, and they are always friendly and helpful from the moment you walk in. I highly recommend them; they're fantastic! read more

Recently came across this little gem. These guys know what they are doing, and will go the extra mile to make sure you get exactly what you want. read more

I use Swifty Printing to print posters once or twice a month for meetings I facilitate. I have always been happy with the quality of the posters and the speed with which they are delivered. I highly recommend Swifty! read more

I love Swifty Printing. Today is the second time I have used them in the last 3 months. George remembered me when I walked in, remembered the job--which was a small run of a brochure. He gave me a great price, was super nice, and turned it all around in under 24 hours. Customer service like this is rare. I would use Swifty again over any of the big name print companies. read more

We use swifty for all our business printing needs and they (particularly George) are extremely helpful. They always deliver on time and hi-quality. They have even done several last minute print jobs without a blink of an eye, and the price didn't jack up either! I am very happy with swifty and would highly recommend them for business printing needs. read more

Horrible customer service and SLOW! don't go there unless you have 2 months to wait for business cards.

We were in town for the Pac Fish Expo and forgot business cards. I called up Swifty Printing at 10am and picked up 500 business cards just after noon the same day. The customer service was great and the cost was very reasonable. In just over two hours we were handing those cards out. read more

I can't thank Ben and Swifty Printing enough! I came from out of town for a wedding. I had a picture on my laptop and an idea for a poster. Ben was so helpful and was able to create the exact thing I hoped for. My poster was ready overnight. I am very grateful to Ben and Swifty Printing for their fast work and for the beautiful finished product. It will be a wonderful keepsake for the couple. read more

We love Swifty! I work at a nonprofit nearby and we use them for all our printing needs. They are fast, prices are fair, and the quality is fantastic. Since we are close, they will even walk over proofs and deliveries. We are always impressed with the customer service and always shocked at how quickly they turn products around! read more
