Works with different print processes on any substrate
Printform works with all digital printers: UV, eco-solvent, dye sublimation, latex and more
Our customers print on plastic, metal, glass, and natural and synthetic fibers.
Our software works with the latest printers by Mimaki, Océ, Roland, Canon and HP Scitex.
We know Printform works for printers and manufacturers because we use it ourselves.
Digital printing is far more than big promotional item orders these days.
You can print on any material — take our custom wallet business ThinFolio, for instance. We create a wallet with 6 photos, wherever they live. Each one is designed by the customer using their own images, paid for online, and then printed and shipped in minutes.
Now imagine making and tracking thousands of them.
We created this custom print platform for our own ThinFolio wallets. The platform allowed us to go from producing 75 wallets per month to 75 wallets per hour. You can do it too. Here’s how Printform powers your custom print business:

Online Designer
You have a website. But you need an online designer where visitors can go to upload photos, design their own products, and submit payment. Printform does all of that for you. No need to spend $100,000 or €100,000 on a custom web app that takes too long to develop and is costly to maintain. We take care of the connections to all popular image sharing services and are obsessed with compatibility with all devices and browsers. Plus we ensure that your customer has the right expectations for the finished product.

Print-Ready Files, Automated Printing
If you can dream it, we can help you print it. Printform’s API works with every custom print product, printer, and software. So when a customer designs and pays for their product, Printform automatically transforms the files into a print-ready RIP PDF. The PDF is sent straight into your printing workflow so you can start production. We handle color profiling, sizing, and cropping, so there’s no need for a graphic designer making every single image print-ready.

Common Questions
I print on things no else does. Will Printform still work for me?
Yes! Once you sign up, we’ll create multi-layered digital templates that support your manufacturing process.
I already have a website - why do I need Printform?
Our platform powers your online designer, payments, and all of the backend processes that go into custom printing. You can still use your own website and plug right into PrintForm on a subdomain.
When you say “print ready,” does that mean I don’t need a graphic designer to finish custom jobs?
Absolutely. Your customers will use our online designer to upload images and add them to a product template. PrintForm creates a print-ready and RIP-ready file based on the software and printer you use.
My production process is pretty complicated. How do I track inventory?
All tracking is done with barcodes and/or order IDs for your internal use. Your production pipeline will be updated as products move through your process.

I print batch jobs in the tens, hundreds, or thousands. Does Printform help with that too?
Yes. PrintForm works well for individual custom print jobs and large orders alike. We’ve even used it for wholesale drop-ship orders. We support one-off and short run production at similars as bulk and stock orders.
Which print technologies does Printform support?
Great question. We support UV printing, dye sublimation, direct-to-fabric, solvent, latex, and many more.
