Use envelope printing services that offer design services as well You can save some money by foregoing a graphic designer. Ask your envelope printer to include design services.

I recommend:  Check out Staples online store, Overnight Prints, Nationwide Envelope Company, and VistaPrint. Each of these discount online envelope printing and design services handles large quantity printing. They offer simple design options for your envelope printing. Contact their customer service departments for more information.

Get some new equipment and print envelopes in-house For small quantities of business envelopes, it may be more efficient to buy a good printer and print them in-house.

I recommend:  Check out articles on PC World for updated information on the best laser printers available. Xerox, Brother, and Lexmark tend to make high quality large printers with high throughput capacity. Hewlett-Packard, on the other hand, tends to lead the market with its high resolution home-sized, inexpensive printers.

Save money by designing your own business envelopes and printing them off-site With the right envelope printing software, you could design your own business envelopes in-house. Once designed, you can send them off to an online or local printer.

I recommend:  Use MS Publisher, Adobe InDesign, or Adobe Illustrator. You can get free trials of Adobe products. Microsoft also has a free trial for MS Publisher. Save your work as a JPEG or as a PDF, and it can be uploaded onto just about any printer's website. Online printers, such as AllPro Color, GotPrint, and Action Envelope have design programs or templates for you to use and they can print your envelopes for you.
