126 pages at 14.2 copies: the shape of a Shillong document job

PDF and document printing carries 1,208 of Shillong's printed items, 81.3% of everything we print for the city against 79.3% across India, so the share itself is ordinary. The shape of the work is not: those items average 126 pages and a mean of 14.2 copies each. A mean cannot say how many of those jobs were single copies. What it does say is that the copy-count tiers are in play on this route more than they are on a one-off job.

A standard order is 1 to 49 copies of a file of 21 pages or more, A4 black and white on both sides, at ₹0.60 a page. It falls to ₹0.57 on the 50 to 99 copy tier, and to ₹0.54 at 100 copies or more. Shillong's document row averages 14.2 copies, inside the first tier, though an average cannot say where your own run lands.

Soft cover on 26.9% of Shillong items, and it is charged per copy

Soft cover (perfect) binding was chosen on 388 printed items here, 26.9% of everything we print for Shillong against 11.4% across India, about 2.4 times. Spiral runs the other way, at 163 items and 11.3% here against 17.6% nationally. The finish chosen most often on Shillong work is loose sheets with no binding, on 39.9% of printed items, about 0.7 times its 53.9% national share. These are the city's top rows, not the whole catalogue.

The product table shows where the long files are. Paperback books are 129 printed items for Shillong, 8.7% of the mix against 10.7% across India, averaging 403 pages at a mean of 5.4 copies. Hardbound books are 37 items, 2.5% here against 1.3% nationally, about 1.9 times, averaging 370 pages and usually a single copy. Thesis printing is 32 items at 85 pages. Products and finishes are counted separately, so no row here matches a binding row.

Binding is quoted per copy at the 1 to 50 copy tier, and on a route whose paperback row averages 5.4 copies an item, per copy is the phrase to read twice: corner staple ₹2, staple ₹15, spiral ₹40, soft cover ₹110, hard binding ₹250. Soft cover, hard binding, glue or tape and saddle stitch each add 1 to 2 working days on top of the 3 to 5 working days production takes; spiral, comb, wiro and staple do not. Shillong's 388 soft cover items sit on that slower side.

The small-format rows: A5 at 7.0 times its national share

Two rows in Shillong's product table are named for a paper size, and both run ahead of their national share. A5 printing is 16 printed items, 1.1% of the mix against 0.2% across India, about 7.0 times, averaging 9 pages at a mean of 2.9 copies. A4 as its own line is 27 items, 1.8% against 0.7% nationally, about 2.4 times, averaging 58 pages at a mean of one copy. Both rows are small: a multiple built on 16 items moves on one unusual order.

The per-page rate is set by size and sides. A5 black and white on both sides is ₹0.38 a page against ₹0.60 on A4, and colour on A4 is ₹3.36. One caveat matters for a city whose A5 row averages 9 pages: the published rates assume a document of 21 pages or more, and on A4 a file shorter than that is ₹0.63 a page instead of ₹0.60. GST at 5% is added on top.

21 pincodes on the 793 prefix, filed under one configured band

Our courier network is configured for 21 serviceable pincodes inside Shillong, all on the 793 prefix, and 42 named localities sit within them: Laitumkhrah, Rilbong, Mawlai, Happy Valley and Upper Shillong among them. They are places we deliver to, not premises: no counter, no agent, nothing to collect from. East Khasi Hills is configured for 31 serviceable pincodes across 13 places we serve, and Meghalaya for 67 pincodes across 8 districts.

DTDC is configured on 10 of those 21 pincodes, but the carrier on any single order is decided by serviceability when it ships, so no page of ours can promise a named one. For the leg after printing, the network files 19 of Shillong's pincodes under one configured transit band rather than spreading them. That is how the route is set up, not a log of what parcels have done. Work to the published figure: 5 to 10 working days, counting from the working day after we accept the order.

509 orders to Shillong, and 92.7% of what we ship to Meghalaya

We have printed and dispatched 509 orders to Shillong over the last 24 months. That is rank 30 among the places we ship to nationally, rank 1 of the 2 places we serve in Meghalaya, and 92.7% of our Meghalaya volume. Read it as a count of our own work, not of printing bought in the city. Our Meghalaya neighbour list names Jowai at 40 orders, and that list is truncated to the largest few rather than a full roll of the state.

Those orders carry 1,485 separate printed items between them, because one order usually holds several lines, which is why every share here counts items and never orders. Payment is prepaid online in full, by UPI, card or net banking, before printing starts. The honest limit: if you need a few pages in your hand this morning, print them near you instead. There is no collection point of ours in East Khasi Hills. This route earns its place on work that repeats.

Frequently asked questions

What does a multi-copy document run to Shillong cost per page?
A standard order is 1 to 49 copies of a file of 21 pages or more, A4 black and white on both sides, at Rs 0.60 a page. It is Rs 0.57 on the 50 to 99 copy tier and Rs 0.54 at 100 copies or more. Binding is charged per copy on top, plus GST at 5%.
Shillong jobs average 14.2 copies. Does my order get a bulk rate?
No. 14.2 is a mean across the city's PDF and document items, and a mean says nothing about where any single job sits. The tier is set by the copies you actually order: 1 to 49, the 50 to 99 tier, or 100 copies or more. The basket prices your own file before you pay.
Is soft cover binding charged per copy on a repeating Shillong run?
Yes, per copy, at the published 1 to 50 copy tier: soft cover Rs 110, hard binding Rs 250, Rs 275 with golden print on the front, Rs 350 front and spine. Soft cover is chosen on 26.9% of what we print for Shillong, so that line repeats with the copies.
Does binding change the delivery window for Shillong?
Soft cover, hard binding, glue or tape and saddle stitch each add 1 to 2 working days on top of the 3 to 5 working days production takes. Spiral, comb, wiro and staple do not. The Shillong window is 5 to 10 working days and already includes production. It is an estimate, not a fixed date.
Are these percentages shares of the 509 Shillong orders?
No. Each counts printed items, meaning one line on one order, and Shillong's printed items total 1,485 across 509 orders. So 81.3% means 81.3% of everything we print for Shillong, never 81.3% of its orders. The two are different denominators.
Why does Shillong choose soft cover more often than the national mix?
We do not know. What we hold is the count: soft cover on 26.9% of everything we print for Shillong against 11.4% across India, about 2.4 times. Nothing in our data explains the reason, and this page will not invent one. The binding table lists this city's top rows only.
My file is short. Does the Shillong A5 rate still apply?
The published rates assume a document of 21 pages or more. Shillong's A5 row averages 9 pages an item, though an average cannot tell you where your own file sits. On A4, a file shorter than 21 pages is Rs 0.63 a page rather than Rs 0.60.
Which courier carries a Shillong order, and how fast is the route?
Whichever carrier is serviceable for your pincode when the order ships. DTDC is configured on 10 of Shillong's 21 pincodes, but we choose per order, so a named carrier cannot be promised. The published figure is 5 to 10 working days end to end, production included.
Can I collect an order in Shillong or anywhere in East Khasi Hills?
No. Printster is online only. The 21 serviceable pincodes and 42 named localities on this page are delivery destinations, and none is a counter, an agent or a collection point. Pickup exists at our Delhi production facility, for Delhi orders only. Everything for Shillong goes by courier.
