While we do not guarantee exact colour match of your artwork reprints, we endeavour to minimize colour inconsistency in output by applying DeltaE 8 (a printing standard to measure CYMK colour combination inconsistency).

General Expectation on Printing Outcome

6.1 Colour reproduction or accuracy is generally subject to the limitations of gang-run printing method. Therefore, the accuracy of colour reproduction is NOT guaranteed as stipulated in our Colour Disclaimer (clause #7).


6.2 SolidDigital.net assures you that the colour reproduction & consistency of every piece of your product printed in the same bath will meet DeltaE 8 requirements. We cannot be held liable for colour variations between jobs printed in different bathes at different ordering periods.


6.3 Tolerance of the cutting edge is +- 1.5mm.


6.4 Printing surface dotted with dirt shall not be more than 1 dot per 5cm² and the dot shall not be bigger than 0.3mm.


6.5 While SolidDigital.net will take every caution when handling pressure sensitive materials like carbonless copy paper(NCR), we cannot guarantee that they will be completely free of markings after print.


6.6 For products with Spot UV finishing, tolerance of registration is +- 0.25mm. Customer may not reject order if UV defects only 2% below of the printed quantity per order.


7. Colour Disclaimer

In order to provide a cheaper end cost to our members and a quicker turnaround of the printed matter, SolidDigital.net groups together CMYK work. This form of printing referred to as "gang-run printing" or "batch printing" is used for the printing of SolidDigital.net's standard products, and marginal variations are to be expected from one print run to another.


As such, while we take great effort to match colours as accurately as possible, we cannot be held liable for these marginal colour variations or inaccuracies in the printed matter which may be more evident in reprints.


A 100% colour match is not possible. The most accurate means of colour matching entails printing the job in isolation (entire-run print) as a stand alone job. This means of printing should be support by contract proofing and will result in the print cost of the job being significantly greater.


8.Product Refund/Reimbursement

If you are not satisfied with any product, please e-mail Customer service within 7 working days of receiving your order. Please include your Customer number, order number and reason for dissatisfaction. If you have not received your order within the specified delivery time, please contact Customer Service (FEEDBACK) not later than 7 workings days from the date of the specified delivery time. Our customer services department will review your complaint and work with you to to meet your expectation. PLEASE NOTE: we will only reprint or refund the cost of any print job that fails to meet the conditions under the General Expectation on Printing Outcome ( Terms & Conditions , Clause #6 ).However, we are not responsible for typing, image, or design errors introduced by customers in the artwork/document creation process. In an effort to keep cost down and pass those savings along to our customers. SolidDigital.net does not review artwork/documents for content or spelling. In no way shall either Solid Digital Printing Sdn Bhd. or its subsidiaries, offices, directors, shareholders or employees be liable for any special incidents, indirect or consequential damages, mistakes or rejects of any kind whether or not the party has been advised of the possibility of such damages or rejects arising out of or related to an SolidDigital.net Customer's actions(s), The terms and conditions constitute all terms and agreements relating to Customers participating in the SolidDigital.net Customer Program.
