How it works
How same day printing actually works
Same day printing sounds too good to be true. It is not. Here is the process, step by step, from the product you pick to the box that ships out today.
Pick your product
Choose business cards, postcards, flyers, stickers, or anything else from the 1,000+ product catalog.
Upload your file
Use a print-ready design or start from scratch. Match the file specs, CMYK color, correct bleed, and proper resolution.
Select same day turnaround
Choose the same day option at checkout. Orders placed before the cutoff time enter production right away.
4OVER4 prints and ships
Your order clears quality checks and ships the same business day. With 82% of orders shipping early, yours may leave even faster.
That is it. Orders placed before the cutoff time enter production immediately, clear the same quality checks as every other job, and ship the same business day. With 82% of orders shipping early and 10,000+ reviews confirming it, there is a good chance yours leaves even faster than expected.
The specs you control
Configure it, then watch the price move
Rush speed does not shrink your options. Paper stock, finish, and size are all live in the Instant Price Calculator, and same day orders draw from the same materials as any other. Below are the real options and the starting price for business cards, the product people rush most.
Where it pays off most
Who needs same day printing
Rush printing has a bad reputation. People assume fast means cheap-looking. That is not the case here. Same day orders use the same presses, paper, and quality controls as standard turnaround. The only difference is how fast they move through production. Here is where that speed matters most.
Event planners on final notice
You just got the final speaker confirmations and the event is tomorrow. Order banners, programs, or postcards today and they ship the same business day. The Printing Features Guide shows every option available across turnaround speeds.
Agents and founders on the move
Real estate agents heading to an open house tomorrow and startup founders pitching investors this afternoon cannot wait a week for print. Same day turnaround keeps a collapsed timeline on track without a scramble.
Restaurants and quick launches
Restaurant owners launching a weekend special or fixing a menu typo can reorder in the morning and have corrected pieces shipping that afternoon. Speed turns an embarrassing mistake into a non-event.
Trade show reprints
Ran out of business cards at a trade show? Order a fresh batch and have it shipped immediately. You still get 60+ paper types on eligible products, so a rush reprint looks and feels just as premium as the first run. Get your file ready with Design Templates before you order.
The numbers behind fast-turnaround printing. Here is what same day really means for a deadline.

Same day vs standard turnaround
What you are actually paying for
Let us be straight about what changes and what does not. Print quality, paper options, finishing techniques, and quality inspection all stay the same. Your prints look identical whether they ship today or next Thursday.
What changes is production priority and price. Same day printing costs more than standard turnaround, because you are paying for priority placement in the production queue. That is the trade-off, and it is a fair one. Most online printers offer 3 to 5 business day turnaround as their fastest option. 4OVER4 gets it done the same day, and with 99.8% on-time delivery you are not gambling on a maybe.
Fast does not have to mean expensive. On larger quantities, Bulk Discounts bring your per-unit cost down even on rush orders. The per-piece price drops as your quantity climbs, so ordering 1,000 flyers same day costs less per flyer than ordering 100. And with 99% of customers saying they will reorder, the experience clearly delivers.
The table below shows real business card pricing from the live calculator, so you can see the actual per-unit cost at each quantity before you commit to a rush run.
| Quantity | Price Per Unit | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 100 | 17.6¢ | $17.57 |
| 200 | 11.5¢ | $23.07 |
| 300 | 9.15¢ | $27.46 |
| 400 | 7.96¢ | $31.86 |

| 600 | 6.77¢ | $40.64 |

Our Story
Partner With Innovators
They told us we were crazy. We don't want to be sane.
The Beginning
In 1999, Google was barely starting out. WiFi didn't exist. People were afraid of Y2K. And two best friends, second-generation immigrants and patent-holding engineers in Queens, New York, launched 4OVER4.COM as the second web-based printer in the entire United States.
The Innovation
4OVER4 was the first printer to introduce full-color printing with 24 to 48 hour turnaround. When the industry said it couldn't be done that fast, they did it anyway. No compromises, no excuses, just engineering.
27 Years and Counting
Over 350 products. More than 6,000 possible combinations. 150,000+ businesses served, from solo freelancers to Google and the United Nations. A facility in Queens that still runs on vegetable inks and waterless presses — built that way from day one because it was the right thing to do.
Sustainability
Your Free Prints Are Eco-Friendly Too
Every coin-redeemed order is printed on the same waterless presses, with the same vegetable inks and FSC-certified papers. Free printing, zero environmental compromise.
- FSC Certified Printer (#C013635)
- Vegetable-based inks (zero VOC emissions)
- 70% waste reduction program
- ~20,000 gallons of water saved per month (waterless printing technology)
- 30% post-consumer recycled content on uncoated stocks
4OVER4 has been printing from Queens, NY since 1999. FSC Certification, vegetable inks, and waterless presses aren't a marketing angle. They're how the shop runs, every day, whether you're paying full price or redeeming coins.
