From Offset to Everything: The Printlogic Story

Printlogic didn't start as a grand product vision. It started as a favor for a single print shop, then grew one real-world workflow at a time. From offset quoting in 2000 to supporting nearly every print process today, this is the story of how Printlogic evolved by listening to the needs of actual print businesses.

Back in 2000, most print businesses faced an impossible choice: buy expensive print MIS software they couldn't afford, or manage their quoting manually. That's when Geoff, now Printlogic's CEO, had a conversation with a friend running a print shop. The friend asked if he could build an offset quoting system for him.

Geoff did. What started as a favor became a business. What began as one solution became something much bigger.

How It Started

As more customers came on board, so did more feature requests. One customer needed digital printing support. Another needed wide format workflows. Then came screen printing, labels, flexo, embroidery. Each customer brought new requirements. Each requirement shaped the product.

What began as an offset quoting tool evolved into one of the most comprehensive print management systems in the industry. Not because Printlogic chased every trend. But because Geoff listened to real print businesses and built what they actually needed.

What Printlogic Supports Today

Starting with offset and litho printing, we've expanded to support virtually every type of printing workflow:

  • Offset & Litho - Where it all started
  • Digital Printing - High-volume, fast-turnaround work
  • Wide Format - Posters, banners, large format
  • Signs - Fabrication and installation workflows
  • Labels - Including specialized label workflows
  • Screen Printing - Apparel and promotional work
  • Flexo - High-volume flexible packaging
  • Embroidery - Decorative and branded products
  • Reel-to-Reel - Continuous production runs
  • Pricelist Pricing - For high-volume standardized products
  • Outsourced Quoting - Managing subcontracted work
  • Many more specialist types - Because print is diverse

Whether you're running a traditional litho shop, a digital print house, a sign company, or a hybrid operation with multiple print types, Printlogic has been configured for businesses like yours.

Why This Matters

Most print MIS platforms started with one type of printing and bolt features onto it. You end up with compromises - features that don't quite fit your workflow, or missing capabilities altogether.

Printlogic evolved differently. Because we've been building it for real print businesses since 2000, we understand the nuances. Multi-type print shops. Specialist workflows. Edge cases that matter.

The Print Business You Run, Not the Print Business They Imagine

Printlogic works because it was built by listening to print, not by guessing what print needs.

Whether you're offset-only, digital-only, or running five different printing types, we've got you covered.

That's what building print management software since 2000 gets you.
