Ian at Cambridge Print Solutions helped us with printing our wedding invites. He was very helpful via email, and offered us a very reasonable quote for what we wanted. When we collected the prints, the quality of the card and printing was excellent, and our invitations look great! Thanks a lot Ian and the team!

We had a fantastic experience with Cambridge Print Solutions with helping us print an Order of Service for our grandmother's funeral. Joe was extremely helpful and patient with us and worked with us to ensure that the printing and artwork was to a high standard. The booklets are a fantastic quality and were printed promptly - we can't thank you enough!

I needed some important documents and because of all the Covid-19 situation I was lost of where to find a place to make copies. I called Cambridge Print Solutions and they helped me to print my documents in no time. Through email, I sent the PDFs and got them next day. Very polite and nice gentleman helped me over the phone and on collection. I will definitely recommend them. Thank you!
