Sprinters Printers

Simple print jobs needed, these guys can probably help but be prepared for dry and unhelpful service, almost always make you make muliple visits to the shop for a single print job or makes you jump through silly hoops due to the unflexible way they do business and all to print 10 bits of paper.
For a business that deals in digital prints, they really dont like digital files. They will charge you £1.50 for simply taking each file from a USB or even an email, joke.
The actual print prices are mentally high compared to other locals.
The only way they get business is that the bigger, cheaper printers have a minimum order and wont do the small numbers these guys will.
Avoid unless all you need is photocopying.

Sprinters is the place that I go to when I have small printing jobs and bulk photocopying to contend with. It’s a small family printing company that is conveniently located on Stokes Croft, (although parking can sometimes be an issue). The owners, Mike and Veneta, really earn their money, often working to difficult deadlines, and dealing with the problem of insufficient information, shonky artwork, and a general lack of clarity about what the end product should look like… and that’s just me! Lord knows how they cope with everyone else, especially if they have a few more customers who are as indecisive as me.
Thankfully, they have been in business for nearly a quarter of a century, and have long since learned how to deal with the vagaries and capriciousness of their client base. Instinctively able to visualise your requirement, and always oozing a sense of urgency, they make quick work of dealing with your requirement. I initially thought that their approach was a little dismissive, but have since understood the level of pressure that they are constantly under. There’s a very genuine need to get the job done, and so when presented with the vacillating multitudes, it must be the only way to ensure that they don’t spend the whole of their day locked in conversation, going round the houses, and ending up where they started!
I have used Sprinters more times than I can remember, and my respect for this couple has increased with every job. They are honest, hard working and committed to achieving high standards, and I have been totally satisfied with every job that they have done.

Ah, Sprinters Printers.
As if the script from some bizarre David Lynch movie about machines, the owner of Sprinters seems to spend almost all of his life in the company of many large printing devices. Various inks splutter and chatter as he potters between them adjusting saturation levels and filters. Occasionally he’ll stop to fix one or poke another on his way to meet me at the till with my printing request.
He is very much like a cartoon character in this way; an old man keeping the city running, hidden beneath the streets surrounded by machines.
I find it easier to write enchanting prose than it would be to explain the frankly constant cold service and the steady increase in price recently from dear to, well, downright criminal.
He has a lot of machines here that can print all matter of things in all sizes. If you need something printed, I’m sure he can help.
Just expect the unexpected with this one.
