Printing and Copying Services
Delivery Expectation
You can expect a Standard print job 7-10 business days from the date of final proof approval. Rush jobs are subject to additional fees.
Letterhead
Creating and or maintaining an identity for your agency is important. Identity is how customers or clients recognize and remember your agency. Stationary is the first step in creating that identity.
Forms
Gathering information, whether internally or from the people you serve, is often best collected by use of a form. Forms allow your agency to collect and enter data in a uniform and meaningful way as well as expedite the data entry process, which saves your agency work hours.
Direct Mail
Direct Mail pieces ranging from Postcards and Brochures to Letters and Statements can be design and printed in spot color or full process color and merged with information from your customer/client databases to create meaningful, personalized publications.
Postage fees may be pre-billed upon estimate receipt from the USPS as postage must be "pre-paid".
Brochures, Flyers and Newsletters
Whether it is to your customers or internal staff, disseminating information is critical to achieving your agencies mission. Brochures, Flyers and Newsletters help to disseminate the wealth of information about your services or policies and help to bring the end user in for more.
Programs, Invitations
Programs and Invitations are a great courtesy to attendees of special events. Programs inform and establish a timeline for the event, where an Invitation is a very formal way of inviting attendees. Many high level state functions call for this type of formality.
Maps, Displays, Signs, Posters, Overhead Transparencies
Meetings, educational seminars and events often call for Maps, Displays, Signs, Posters or Overheads to visually illustrate information and concepts. They are an important element to the instruction process.
Specialty Printing
If you don't see what you need in the other product descriptions, then your item may fall under the category of Specialty Printing. Pens, Pencils, Stickers, Post-Its Notes, 3 ring Binders, and other non-standard objects can be obtained.
The Printing and Publishing office can consult on and facilitate the order of these Specialty Printing items.
Copyright Notice

Bindery Services
Directories and Manuals
Does your agency direct the public to services available from your Division, Department or the entire State? Does your agency provide training or educational services internally, to other agencies or to the public? An answer of yes to any of these indicates the need for a Directory or Manual. Where an advertising piece gives your users a place to start, Directories and Manuals provide them with the details necessary to locate services or instruction on what they need to do.
The Printing and Publishing Office can also print Reports. There is however a directive from the OMB Director to disseminate reports electronically by posting to websites or burning to disc. The exception would be if it is required by Delaware Code or mandate that a report must be printed. The Printing and Publishing Office needs written justification by a cabinet level approving authority to print any reports.
