Lost a $600 run of 500 business cards in June because the 100lb matte cover drank ink way darker than my screen showed. Now I ask for a trimmed dummy on the exact stock before I sign off, and it's caught two near misses since. Anyone got a printer in the Midwest who sends real dummies without charging an arm and a leg for it?
