Color Accuracy and Hardcopy Proofs
Guwahati Printers will match or reproduce the color from submitted print-ready files as 88% closely as possible, but cannot match the exactly color and density because of limitations in the printing process.
The accuracy of each color matching or reproducing is guaranteed to be within 88% of the final proof you approved or S S Graphics will reprint your job at no charge to the customer. Please note that S S Graphics cannot guarantee color reproduction for your print-ready files if you: (a) did not request a hardcopy proof; or (b) purchased a product that does not feature a hardcopy proof option. Please note that we accept no responsibility for color variations between submitted print-ready images and the actual artwork or product they represent.
Artwork Files
Our prepress department checks most artwork files before printing, but you are still 100% responsible for the accuracy of your print-ready artwork files, and we encourage you to proofread all files carefully before submitting to S S Graphics . Please note that we have created file preparation guidelines and product templates to assist you in creating print-ready files.
You certify that you have the right to use the image(s) in your artwork files. DO NOT send any "one-of-kind" transparencies, prints or artwork. Although we take every precaution to safeguard your materials, we are NOT responsible for loss or damage of images or artwork.
Under these Terms and Conditions, you agree that you will NOT upload 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.
Printing Turnaround Time
Printing turnaround time begins once your order has been placed and your print-ready files have been uploaded to your account, attached to your printing job, and approved for printing. If you ordered a hardcopy proof, printing turnaround time begins when we receive approval for your proof. Please note that if we are unable to print your files because they do not confirm to our file requirements, your job status will return to "Need Artwork" and your printing turnaround time will be reset again.
Any printing jobs that do not have complete digital source files provided, printing turnaround begins when we have your print-ready file(s) for your print job, not from when the order is first submitted by you.
If your job or proof is approved by 11:00 A.M. (IST), printing turnaround time begins that business day. For example, a job for three-day printing turnaround that you approved by 11:00 A.M. (IST), on Tuesday will be shipped out to you by end of business Friday. Please note that S S Graphics offices are closed on Saturdays, Sundays and Prescribed Holidays in India. As a result, these days are not considered when calculating printing turnaround time. In addition, printing turnaround time does not include shipping transit time, and you should allow additional business days for delivery based on the shipping method you selected.
Printing turnaround time for jobs with approved payment and accepted print-ready files is guaranteed. The remedy for failing to meet a deadline is limited to a refund of any rush charges or a courtesy rush on your next order. Cancellation of an order based on printing turnaround time is only allowed if the customer indicates in writing (e.g., note posted to order) when placing the original order that a job in the order is time sensitive and must be shipped by target date based on printing turnaround option selected by the client.
Shipping
You need to select one of the shipping options presented to you on the Site.
All shipping except Ocean mode shipping is currently done via Road, Air or Air. When choosing a shipping option, please remember that the estimated shipping transit time is based on the number of business days in transit and does not include weekends, holidays or the day the package is picked up by service provider. For instance, a product shipped 2 nd Day Air and picked up on a Thursday would be delivered by end of day Monday.
Shipping transit times vary, and S S Graphics assumes no responsibility for delays caused by shipping carriers, weather or any damages resulting from the failure to receive a job on time. Your order may arrive late due to unforeseen delays in delivery service, the breakdown of equipment, illness, etc.
Pick Up orders will be held for 30 days at our facility. After 30 days, we will recycle your order.
Target Arrival
Target arrival dates are calculated by adding the printing turnaround time to the shipping transit time. If you are requesting a Hardcopy Proof, we already factor in additional time to reach your target date. For Standard Hardcopy Proof, expect approximately six business days to receive and approve your proof. For Next Day Hardcopy Proof, expect two business days. Both printing and shipping times are based on business days only and do not include weekends or holidays.
For example, a product with a printing turnaround time of two business days and a shipping method of 2 nd Day Air would have a target arrival date four business days after your files have been received by us.
The cut off time for accepting files is (5.00 P:M IST). If your files are in by that time, we will commit to printing and shipping your product within the selected timeframe.
Please understand that target arrival dates are estimates, not guarantees. While we will do everything in our power to meet your target arrival date, weather and other occurrences beyond our control may impact our ability to meet that date.
Miscellaneous
No refunds are given once S S Graphics begins working on your order, which means S S Graphics has received your necessary materials (i.e., digital files and payment) and started work on your job (i.e., your job is in production).
Within 30 days of purchase, a partial or full refund may be extended to the customer if no work has been completed by S S Graphics . Please note that such refund would be reduced to cover any fees charged for proofs, processing or other services associated with that order.
Guwahati Printers actively maintains materials inventory and staff, and schedules time on all equipment for orders that have been placed. Orders that are not sent to press by the customer within 5 days of order incur additional equipment, labor and inventory costs for S S Graphics . Orders not sent to press by the customer within 90 days of the order being placed will be non-refundable and will incur a fee of 12.5% of the original job total for each 30 day period thereafter until 100% of the original job total has been accrued in fees.
All materials we create in producing your printed product are the property of Guwahati Printers. Although these materials will NOT be sold, distributed or given to any other party or person, we reserve the right to distribute free samples of your printed product. Please note that your printed product or images used for your printed product will not be used in any national advertising without your prior written consent.
