Behind the Scenes: What Really Happens at a Commercial Printing Company

When most people think of printing, they picture a file being uploaded and a machine spitting out finished pieces—fast, automated, and impersonal. But at RoyerComm, commercial printing is an entirely different experience. It’s not about clicking “submit” and hoping for the best. It’s about collaboration, craftsmanship, and confidence.

In this post, we’re pulling back the curtain to show you what really happens at a commercial printing company—and why choosing RoyerComm means choosing a partner, not just a printer.

At RoyerComm, every project begins with a discussion—not a transaction. Before a single sheet of paper is ordered or a press is powered on, our team works closely with you to understand your goals, your brand, your audience, and your timeline.

Need help selecting the right stock? Unsure if your artwork will translate to print? Looking for a way to elevate your packaging? That’s where we shine. While online printers take orders, we offer guidance and solutions that help you get more from your print investment.

Design & Prepress: Where Vision Meets Precision

Once we align on your goals, our in-house prepress team gets to work. Here’s where the technical magic happens. We review every file—line by line—to ensure color accuracy, image resolution, bleed settings, and layout alignment.

Many print errors come from skipping this step. At RoyerComm, we don’t cut corners. Our goal is to catch issues before they become costly mistakes, giving you peace of mind and perfect output.

Press Time: A Marriage of Art and Engineering

Whether your job calls for offset, digital, or specialty printing, our pressroom is where craftsmanship comes to life. Our team calibrates every press to maintain color consistency and fidelity, no matter the size of the run.

We don’t just “hit print”—we monitor, adjust, and refine throughout the job. The result? Flawless prints that bring your brand to life and exceed expectations.

Print isn’t complete until it’s finished. At RoyerComm, that means custom folding, die cutting, embossing, foil stamping, binding, and more. We tailor the finish to match your purpose—whether it’s a luxurious feel for a high-end brochure or practical durability for point-of-sale displays.

These details may seem small, but they’re often what separates good print from unforgettable print.

Quality Control Every Step of the Way

From prepress to packaging, every job goes through a strict quality control process. Our team reviews each piece for color, alignment, finish, and integrity before it ever reaches your hands.

With RoyerComm, you’re not just buying print—you’re investing in excellence.

Why It Matters: The RoyerComm Difference

We understand that print is a reflection of your brand. That’s why we operate less like a print vendor and more like a consultative partner. From your first call to final delivery, we’re focused on helping you get the most impact and value from your print materials.

Choosing RoyerComm means:

  • Personalized service from real people who know print
  • Strategic guidance to elevate your materials
  • In-house quality assurance from start to finish
  • The peace of mind that comes with experience and integrity

Online print providers may be fast and cheap, but they’re not built to solve problems or catch mistakes. At RoyerComm, we believe your print deserves more. More attention. More expertise. More care.
