About the shop

A print shop, not
a print machine.

Interior of a small independent print shop with warm afternoon light, wooden counter, and walls of framed sample prints.

The Printer has been printing for Washington and the surrounding communities for over 40 years. Business cards on a Tuesday, wedding invitations on Wednesday, a rush of head shots on Thursday.

Our owner, Wendy Melechen, exercises great attention to detail for every job — the kind of one-on-one service you don't get from a website with an upload button.

High-quality printing.
Small shop. Real people.
