Mistakes happen when you rush! Just because we can do something by tomorrow doesn't mean that we should.
When you're in a hurry, you may forget to tell your printer certain instructions. Or you might make a mistake in your original file because you were concentrating on getting it done, instead of getting it done right.
Schedule. Schedule. Schedule.
Before you work on your printing project, talk with your printer. Get your printer involved from the beginning because there might be a more efficient way to finish your project on time that you don't know about.
You can save time, money and headaches from the very beginning by communicating with your printer!
Why do most people do the exact opposite of this and wait until the last minute to talk to their printer? Because everybody takes the printer for granted. Everyone thinks the printer can easily take care of their work. Most everyone thinks the printer is sitting around waiting for their job to come through the door (or over the Internet). This isn't the case.
You should think of your printer as your "project partner". Consult with your printer. Let them know in advance what you want printed. Ask them if there are any tips they can give you to make your project go smoother.
You are not the only client your printer has. When you call or walk in the door saying that you need it "now", a printer can't always help you. You both need to work together.
