Online Print Shop in Patiala

Printster is an online print shop that couriers to Patiala; we hold nothing in the city. Set paper, sides, colour and finish, pay online, and it arrives in 5 to 10 working days. Over 24 months we have shipped 156 orders to Patiala, 393 printed items between them, and e-book printing is 10.9% of that work against 1.8% across India: a screen file that reaches us with no paper chosen.

The 160-page Patiala document, and the sheet its rate assumes

Every per-page rate here describes one stock: 75 GSM Normal, in A4, A5 or B5, at 1 to 49 copies of a file of 21 pages or more. Patiala's document work sits on it: 289 of the city's 393 printed items, 73.5% of what we print for Patiala against 79.3% across India, averaging 160 pages at a mean of 2.6 copies. A mean describes the row, not your order.

The ladder above runs 75 GSM Premium at the same weight, Bond and Duo at 85 and 100 GSM, then coated matte and glossy stock from 130 GSM to 300 GSM. Weight buys stiffness and opacity, meaning how little of the reverse side shows through. On a Patiala file of 160 pages printed both sides, opacity decides it: dense type on the back of a light sheet ghosts into the page being read.

43 e-book jobs at 158 pages, and a file that names no stock

E-book printing is 43 of Patiala's 393 printed items: 10.9% of what we print for the city against 1.8% across India, about 6.1 times the national share, on a row averaging 158 pages and usually one copy. Nothing we hold measures why, and these are the city's top rows only. What it settles is the specification: a file laid out for a screen names no stock and no weight, so both are set at checkout.

For one reading copy of 158 pages, 75 GSM Normal is what the quoted rate assumes. Bond or Duo at 85 or 100 GSM gives the block body, so it holds a flatter page and feels less like a loose bundle, and it leaves a thicker block if it is to be bound afterwards. GST at 5% is added on top of every rate here, whichever stock is chosen.

A 282-page Patiala paperback, and what text weight does to a spine

Products and finishes are counted in separate tables, 393 printed items against 390, so a row in one cannot be set against a row in the other. Paperback books are 50 of Patiala's product rows, 12.7% against 10.7% across India, about 1.2 times, averaging 282 pages and usually a single copy. Soft cover binding sits on 77 finish rows, 19.7% against 11.4% across India, about 1.7 times.

Text weight decides how thick a 282-page block ends up, and the spine must hold that thickness square: a heavier sheet makes a fuller book with a wider spine, a lighter one keeps it slim. Per copy at 1 to 50 copies, soft cover binding is ₹110, glue or tape ₹60 and hard binding ₹250, on top of the pages. Those three add 1 to 2 working days to the 3 to 5 working days of printing.

Art prints at 6.8 times the national share, and the coated weights

Art and graphic prints are a small row for Patiala and a wide one against the country: 5 printed items, 1.3% of what we print for the city against 0.2% across India, about 6.8 times the national share, with no page average recorded. A4 printing adds 6 more items, 1.5% against 0.7%, about 2.0 times, averaging 33 pages. Short, image-led work is where the coated weights from 130 GSM to 300 GSM become the point.

Patiala's five art and graphic prints are where that choice bites. Matte scatters the light reaching it, so there is no hot spot to read around and a fingermark barely registers, which suits work pinned up or read at an angle. Glossy sends light back one way, saturating photographic colour and holding dark detail, at the cost of a bright patch wherever the lamp sits.

12 pincodes on the 147 prefix, and what Patiala is actually promised

Our courier network is configured for 12 serviceable pincodes in Patiala, 83% of them on the 147 prefix, and inside them we deliver into 55 named localities, Civil Lines Patiala, Urban Estate, Sanaur and Tripri among them. None is a premises or a collection point. Patiala district holds 24 serviceable pincodes across 8 places we serve, Rajpura among them at 34 orders, and Punjab gives us 593 pincodes in 27 districts.

The 156 orders shipped to Patiala over 24 months rank 6 of the 19 places we serve in Punjab, 5.9% of our volume there. DTDC is configured on four of the twelve pincodes, but the carrier is chosen per order on serviceability, so no Patiala job can be promised to a named one. The courier network publishes a 3 to 4 day transit band for the leg after printing on seven of the twelve: configuration, not a measurement.

What is promised is 5 to 10 working days, counted from the working day after we accept the order, printing already inside it, and it is an estimate rather than a guarantee. There is work we are wrong for, and two pages wanted in Patiala this afternoon is the clearest case: ordering online shortens nothing.

Frequently asked questions

Is a heavier sheet worth it on a 160-page Patiala document?
The default is 75 GSM Normal, the stock every rate here is quoted on, and 160 pages is the average of Patiala's document row. Printed both sides, dense type on the reverse shows through a little. Bond or Duo at 85 or 100 GSM cuts that. The price for whichever you pick is shown before you pay.
What is a page charged at on an order going to Patiala?
The delivery address does not move the rate card. At 1 to 49 copies of a file of 21 pages or more, on 75 GSM Normal, A4 in black and white is Rs 0.60 a page printed both sides and Rs 0.85 on one side; A5 is Rs 0.38 and A4 colour Rs 3.36. At 100 copies or more the A4 page is Rs 0.54; under 21 pages it is Rs 0.63.
How long does an order to Patiala take, and what stretches it?
5 to 10 working days, and the count starts the working day after we accept the order, printing already inside that span. Spiral, comb, wiro and staple do not extend it. Soft cover, hard binding, glue or tape and saddle stitch each add 1 to 2 working days. It is an estimate, not a guarantee.
Is spiral or loose sheets the usual finish on Patiala work?
Loose sheets with no binding is the most-chosen finish on Patiala work, on 194 of the 390 rows in the finish table, 49.7% against 53.9% across India. Spiral follows on 83 rows, 21.3% against 17.6%. Per copy at 1 to 50 copies, spiral is Rs 40, comb and wiro Rs 45 and staple Rs 15.
Hard binding is chosen more here than nationally. What does it cost?
Hard binding sits on 10 of Patiala's 390 finish rows, 2.6% against 0.5% across India, about 5.0 times the national share. It is a rigid case around the block, priced per copy at 1 to 50 copies: Rs 250 plain, Rs 275 with golden print on the front, Rs 350 on the front and spine.
Can I collect an order in Patiala, or settle up when it arrives?
Neither. Everything for Patiala travels by courier, prepaid by UPI, card or net banking in full before printing starts. We keep no counter, agent or collection point in the city, and the 55 localities listed below are places we deliver to, not places we occupy.
