Bulk & Volume Printing

Send the set the way it actually arrives

Architectural from one firm, structural from another, MEP from a third. Upload them all as separate files. We count every sheet across the whole order, apply one volume rate, and review each sheet before it prints.

You should not have to merge four PDFs to get a price

Every other printer makes you flatten a plan set into one file, pick one size, and accept a single rate for the whole document. So an estimator spends an hour in Bluebeam combining consultant files before they can even find out what printing costs.

Upload them separately here. Each file keeps its own size — ARCH D for the architectural sheets, ARCH E for the civil site plan — and every sheet counts toward the same volume rate.

1

Upload every file

One file or twenty. We detect the page count and analyze ink coverage on each one automatically.

2

Set a size per file

Mixed sets are normal. Each file prints at its own size and still counts toward the same rate.

3

See the price instantly

Total sheets, the volume tier you earned, and a per-file breakdown — before you enter a card.

4

We check, then print

Scale, orientation and completeness verified on every sheet. Problems caught before production.

Published volume rates

ARCH D 24×36 black and white. The tier is set by total sheets on the order — every file, every size, every set counted together. It applies automatically at checkout.

Sheets on the orderPer sheetYou saveTypical job

25 – 99$2.5216%Single-discipline permit set

Other sizes price off the same square-foot rate and earn the same tiers. Color follows the same ladder. Mylar has its own, shallower ladder. Small-format sheets cost proportionally less.

What that looks like on real jobs

50-sheet permit set$126
50-sheet set × 4 copies (200 sheets)$420
250-sheet bid set$450
500-sheet multi-building set$840

Free UPS Ground on every one of these. No rush fees, no setup fees, no per-file charges.

Sets count too

Sheets are counted as pages times sets, because that is what actually runs through the plotter. A 50-sheet permit set in four copies is 200 sheets and earns the 100–249 rate — not four separate 50-sheet orders at the small-order price.

That difference is $84 on a job that size, and it is the most common way firms overpay elsewhere: ordering copies one at a time as the project needs them, instead of together.

Cheaper than the discount printers, at the volume that matters

We will be straight about where we lose. Under about 100 sheets, the deep-discount online printers beat us on price, and if per-sheet cost is your only criterion on a small order you should use them.

Above that, the comparison reverses — and unlike them, we look at your file before it prints.

250-sheet bid setPer sheetTotalFile reviewed?
Discount online printers$1.75$437No
Azul Prints$1.80$450Every sheet
FedEx Office$4.99+$1,248No

Thirteen dollars separates us from the cheapest printer in the country on that job. One rejected submittal costs vastly more than that in re-prints and lost days.

Who orders this way

What they have in common: the same order shape, repeatedly. Files are deleted seven days after the order ships, so a reprint means re-uploading the set.

Common questions

How does bulk blueprint printing pricing work?

The rate is set by the total sheets on your order. ARCH D 24×36 is $3.00 a sheet at 1–24, $2.52 at 25–99, $2.10 at 100–249, $1.80 at 250–499 and $1.68 at 500 or more. The discount applies automatically at checkout — there is no code, no account and nothing to ask for.

Can I upload a plan set as separate files?

Yes, and that is the point. Architectural, structural, MEP and civil usually arrive as separate PDFs from separate consultants. Upload them all and we count every sheet across the whole order, apply one volume rate, and print each file at its own size.

Do multiple sets count toward the volume rate?

Yes. Sheets are counted as pages times sets. A 50-sheet permit set ordered in four copies is 200 sheets and earns the 100–249 rate.

What does a 200-sheet bid set cost?

$420 for ARCH D 24×36 in black and white, with free UPS Ground. Every sheet is reviewed for scale, orientation and completeness before it prints.

Is there a minimum order?

No. Small orders are welcome and pay their own shipping; orders over $29 ship free on UPS Ground.

Can you handle mixed sizes in one order?

Yes. Set a size per file — ARCH D for the architectural sheets, ARCH E for the civil site plan — and they still count together toward the same volume rate.
