Zip Print Australia

ARTWORK: While Zip Print Australia takes all care to avoid errors, Zip Print accepts no responsibility for typographical errors, spelling mistakes, or incorrect information on any project committed to print or production. It is the Client’s responsibility to proof read and approve all final copies before the production of artwork. The email verification of electronic proofs or signed hard copy of proof of the Client’s representative shall be conclusive as to the approval of all artwork prior to their release for printing, implementation or installation. No refunds or reprints are given after a final approved design has gone to print due oversights by the Client’s proof reading. Payment is required in full before artwork can begin unless under prior arrangement. All intellectual property rights including, but not limited to; concepts, proposals, layouts, designs, style, typography, colour schemes and flowcharts, are reserved and remain the property of or return to Zip Print Australia while any past, present or future invoices are outstanding and/or full and final payment has been received. If a project is yet to be commissioned or a purchase order has not been received by Zip Print Australia, all intellectual property rights remain the sole property of Zip Print Australia.

PATENTS & COPYRIGHT: The buyer shall indemnify the seller against all claims, actions, penalties, damages, costs and expenses for which the seller may become liable through anything done by the buyer involving a breach of any Patent, Registered Design, Trade mark or copyright or of any Government Regulations.

You agree that you will NOT supply or ask us to make up any artwork files consisting of the following material: any material that could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law; and any material that could infringe rights of privacy, publicity, copyrights or other intellectual property rights without the permission of the owner of these rights and the persons who are shown in the material if applicable. Zip Print Australia is unable to print sexually explicit materials, including photographic genitals, violently explicit materials, and speech promoting hate or violence.

PRINTING: Although we will endeavour to ensure that requested colours are matched, we do not guarantee an exact match in colour or texture between your Artwork or any other materials supplied by you and the products we create for you. While we have quality control processes in place, you acknowledge and agree that there are acceptable levels of colour variation from print run to print run, from stock to stock, from back to front and between different printing processes. When proofing artwork electronically, colours seen onscreen should not be considered an accurate representation of the printed product. Electronic proofs do not show transparency and over print issues. Errors that we are not responsible for include, but are not limited to: Any spelling, graphics, grammar, punctuation, bleed, orientation/alignment, folding mistakes that are approved by the customer. We are not responsible for damaged fonts, wrong cuts, die lines, crop marks, transparency, overprint, cracks on folds, or finished product size because these inconsistencies are inherent to the printing process. If a proof containing errors is approved by the client, the client is responsible for payment of all original costs of printing (design time, printing, tax) including corrections and reprints. You acknowledge and agree that there are acceptable levels of colour variation from different print runs, stock, printing processes and media. The client is 100% responsible for approvals of Copyright, Trademark and Licensing Agreement of artwork. The email verification or signature on hard copy of proof of the Client’s representative shall be conclusive as to the approval of all artwork prior to their release for printing, implementation or installation. No refunds or reprints are given after a final approved design has gone to print due oversights by the Client’s proof reading.

SIZING AND CUTTING: Cutting accuracy and exact sizing are NOT guaranteed. Machinery used in the printing industry will have a systematic error of ± 2mm. Additionally all jobs are laid out and printed at the exact size ordered. Due to our printing process, the job might be cut ± 2mm smaller on each edge to eliminate run over from the job laid out next to it. A 2mm bleed area will help to reduce any occurrences of truncated copy. Careful consideration must be considered when using borders in art and printing due to the shifting in the cutting process and the above-mentioned errors, this can result in cutting not in same place and therefore appear uneven.

LASER: Due to the nature of the materials used for lasering (MDF, timber, bamboo, acrylic & plywood), minor variations in grain, colour of the product, colour of engraving and other blemishes that may occur, there may be cosmetic differences between products. While all care and attention are taken to minimise obvious blemishes, we trust that the end product will be imperfectly perfect for you. Should you supply the product to be engraved, all care and attention will be taken with no guarantee of the finished product.

LAMINATING: All laminating poses a risk of creasing or damage. Zip Print cannot take responsibility for any damage due to the nature of paper and the laminating process. All care is taken to provide a laminating service that is damage-free.

CANVAS CARE: Keep fabric clean by brushing dry fabric regularly with a soft brush or broom. DO NOT use water, soaps, detergents, cleaning fluids or any other solvents.
