Same-Day Flyer Printing in Chicago
Flyers get ordered late. The event got moved up, the special changed, someone realised the handouts were never printed. Same-day flyer printing exists for exactly those days.
How same-day flyer printing works
- Order before 12 PM, Monday to Friday. Earlier is safer β press time fills up.
- Send print-ready artwork. Our preflight checks size, resolution and bleed automatically and flags problems immediately.
- Approve the proof. You get a digital proof the same morning. Nothing prints until you say yes.
- Pick up by 5 PM at our Niles shop, or arrange local delivery.
No rush fee. Same-day is our standard turnaround at regular price β you are not paying a penalty for a deadline.
Specifications
Who orders same-day flyer
Restaurants and food. New menu, new special, weekend promotion β printed while the kitchen preps.
Events and shows. Handouts for a show that is tonight, not next month.
Real estate. Open-house sheets for a listing that goes live tomorrow morning.
Services and trades. Neighborhood drops that go out this afternoon while your crew is already in the area.
What “print-ready” actually means
This is the single thing that decides whether same-day happens. A file that needs rebuilding cannot be printed in four hours. Send us:
- PDF where possible β it carries fonts and layout reliably
- 300 DPI images at final print size (a photo pulled off a website is usually 72 DPI and will look soft)
- 0.125″ bleed β background color and images extending past the trim line
- Text kept 0.125″ inside the trim so nothing gets cut off
- CMYK color if you can; we will convert RGB, but colors can shift slightly
If any of that is unfamiliar, send what you have anyway. Our preflight catches these problems automatically and we fix simple ones free β we would rather spend ten minutes fixing your file than have you miss your date.

Same-day printing questions
How fast can I get flyers printed?
Same day. Order by 12 PM Monday through Friday with print-ready artwork and they are ready by 5 PM. Runs above 2,500 pieces may need an extra day.
Is there a minimum order for same-day flyers?
100 flyers is the minimum. Price per piece drops sharply at 500 and again at 1,000.
Gloss or matte for flyers?
Gloss makes photos and color pop β best for food, events and products. Matte is easier to read and can be written on β best for menus, price lists and forms.
Can you design my flyer today?
We fix file setup problems free and can do simple layout the same day. Call early β design plus same-day print needs the morning, not the afternoon.
Do you fold flyers or brochures same day?
Trifold brochures can usually be printed and folded the same day. Confirm by phone before ordering so we can hold press time.
