How do I find a printing company for custom designed papers?

Can you answer mora fan's question about printing?:

I would like to start a scrapbook paper company. How do I go about finding a printing company that prints custom designed paper? It needs to be archival quality paper acid free and lignin free. I've been looking online and I have only found printing companies that do brochures and business cards, pamphlets that type of stuff.

Have you claimed your Genesis site?

ok

so that type of printing you are looking to do - is well very expensive and many places that do it arent neccessarily advertising it- for printers money is in the 4color process high speed quick printing-

so - your art could be printed 4 color process- but the paper is gonna kill you- cause printers make you buy the whole roll or qy they have to purchase so they dont lose dolla$. And printers would want to do high quantity- if you are looking for low quantity in a 1 or 2 colors try the phonebook and look for "offset printing" it smaller presses and you can usually do smaller quantities of 500 -1000

to be honest- unless there is a high-end niche target market, you may want to look for another avenue of business. becuase ac moore and micheals and all those have lot of designs for a fraction of what it will cost you- sorry hate to be debbie downer- but i know the print industry (worked on presses for a few years and the company i worked for would never take this project on unless in major quantities and we werent a big company)

regardless…. all the best and shoot for the stars!
