Send the complete production specification so Print Norwood can quote the correct route around quantity, stock, finishing, packing, deadline and delivery allocations. If you already have a written RFQ or supplier specification, include it for a like-for-like production review.
- Quantity per item / title / SKU
- Finished size, pages or construction
- Paper, material, colours and finishing

Final price and turnaround depend on the confirmed specification, artwork, material availability, production capacity and delivery requirement.

Give procurement enough detail to compare the quote properly.
A useful commercial-print quotation should be tied to the actual manufacturing requirement. Send the complete scope once so printing, finishing, packing and delivery can be assessed together.
Include these details in the RFQ
- Exact quantity and number of versions
- Finished size, page count or dimensions
- Colour requirement and paper / board specification
- Binding, lamination or other finishing
- Artwork status and proof requirement, if applicable
- Required receiving date and delivery destination
Send the complete specification once.
Attach artwork or the issued RFQ where available. We can then assess the requested quantity, finish and delivery requirement against the same brief.
The specification—not a generic price list—determines the quote.
For business printing, the same product name can describe very different jobs. A useful quotation starts with the production details that materially change paper usage, press time, finishing, packing and delivery.
Send a complete commercial printing RFQ →Product & quantity
State exactly what is being produced and the quantity for each item or version. Quantity can change the most economical production method.
Size, pages & colour
Finished size, page count, single- or double-sided printing and colour coverage all affect the production requirement.
Stock & finishing
Paper or board, lamination, binding, folding, drilling, numbering, cutting and other finishing should be specified before quotes are compared.
Deadline & delivery
Give the required receiving date, packing instructions and delivery destination so logistics are included in the same brief.
Practical questions before you request pricing
Why can two printing quotations be very different?
Check that both suppliers are quoting the same quantity, finished size, page count, stock, colour, finishing, artwork scope, packing and delivery. A lower number is not a like-for-like saving if the specification is different.
Should I ask for digital or lithographic printing?
You do not need to choose the press before requesting a quote. The most suitable method depends on quantity, format, colour, stock, finishing and timing. Send the requirement and let the production method follow the specification.
What artwork should I send?
A final print-ready PDF is the cleanest starting point where available. If artwork still needs layout or correction, state that in the RFQ so prepress or design work is not confused with printing.
Can one RFQ contain several print items?
Yes. List each item separately with its own quantity and specification, then include the shared deadline and delivery plan. This is especially useful for campaigns, events, training programmes and corporate rollouts.
