Guru Printing Services

I had a job that needed a quick turnaround and they were very helpful in talking me through the process, making suggestions, and getting the job done well in just a few hours.

Easy to work with these guys. They gave me discount when I asked about it after seeing someone on Unilocal post that they honor a 10% discount. That was easy! they just seem to want your business and will jump through hoops to do so… three sheers for this printer…

This review is for passport photos only. I went here twice for passport photos. The first time was for myself and the photos were OK (I’m sure they would be accepted) but the quality was so-​so (a little blurry on one side — maybe it was a shadow?). I went here again for my family member thinking the blurry thing was an exception and it was worse. Mind you passport photos are $ 15 here (for 2 US photos) — which I think is on the expensive end (I remember paying $ 8 or $ 10 at other places). They also don’t let you retake them (I suppose I understand as there may be some who want to keep on retaking them but maybe just one time?). I only came here because it is a couple blocks away from where I live. The employees are pretty friendly though and they are efficient.

My prints came out perfectly and the service was stellar. Would definitely recommend.

Really solid service. Ed and Ardy are always on it and always reply within minutes. Their prices are always great but their service is even better. I will always choose vendors who take care of me no matter what. If you are looking for a printer choose these guys. You won’t be disappointed.

These guys are true professionals. They answered all this nubies questions, accommodated my expedited request (at an additional fee of course) AND even finished ahead of schedule. I will definitely be using their services again.

These guys did an awesome job on my save the date post cards. Glossy front/​matte back, Great pricing, and they were able to rush the production and got my order done before Christmas! Definitely a place worthy of all the glowing reviews.

Amazing just amazing I love how reliable and fast the service was. And pick up was in and out got a little lost due to the whole constitution but other that great service. Will definitely come back and highly recommend.

These guys were great. Called them three days before Christmas and even with getting my files to them by 3pm they stayed open late to make sure I got my prints the same day. On top of all the great customer service the prints came out beautiful. All around, completely impressed. Will be coming back to them again.

Fast, reliable, great service, best deal on fliers and posters in town, my favorite print shop in LA, place over 300 orders a year through them

My experience with guru was straightforward and pleasant. I really like how clear the pricing is on their submission forms with the various options (I was growing frustrated with other places obscuring their pricing). The product was well made and the pick-​up process was easy. They were super friendly and on top of communication.

Guru printers are the best! I needed 50 custom printed mugs last minute and they made it happen. They communicated well throughout the process and delivered a very high quality product right on time. No one else in the area would even talk to me about doing this print job except Guru! I highly recommend them for all of your print needs and I will definitely be coming back to them for future print needs.

So happy to have Guru in the neighborhood. I worked with Ardy in getting some custom wall stickers made for work, and he was an absolute breeze to work with. Great customer service, top-​notch communication, and speedy delivery of final product.
Ardy was really friendly and provided me a quick quote. He also honored a 10% discount code that I provided, and provided me status updates on my order. I am really happy that Guru is local because I will be using them a lot more for all my future printing needs.

Fantastic product, professional to work with and the best price I quoted of others in the area.
I needed 2,500 double sided promo cards and was astounded by their much lower price over the competition. Because of the price I wasn’t sure about the quality but the cards turned out perfect. They even used heavier card stock by default versus other places for not an extra premium.
People complained on Unilocal about their short customer service but I had no problems– quick and clear responses by email and to the point on the phone. They let me have a proof correction without charging me even though their policy is $ 5 normally.
They were speedy so I got my cards with a quick turnaround in time for when I needed them.
The office is in a strange location within the macys building and is no frills. It’s not a fancy storefront with displays but just two guys (that I saw) running around and answering the phone and trying to do it all.
Tip: park inside the macys center, walk through macys and get validation from Guru For free parking.
Tip 2: 10 percent off with your Unilocal checkin!

Fast, excellent and super friendly. The place to print in LA. Price very reasonable as well

Great service. I worked with Ed on two occasions to print event flyers and he was able to work with me despite the fact that it had not been created on adobe (which is not recommended due to quality of the image). I wouldn’t recommend doing that (not using Adobe) because it made the back and forth between us a bit more labored. But in spite of this I thank Ed for his willingness to work with me, ability to give me a good deal, and communicate with me via e-​mail outside of their regular working hours.

PHENOMENAL! Great service, great products, great prices, & great turnaround time. My company uses Guru printing for 3D printing and all our business needs (business cards, letter head etc). Ardy is simply amazing always responds super fast, always willing to go the extra mile to accommodate our needs (including staying late/​coming in early to get our prints on time). I can’t say enough great things about Ardy and Guru printing, they are simply the best hands down.

As an avid Unilocaler, I’m always very wary of 1 star Unilocal reviews, especially with businesses that have 4 or 5 stars overall. In this case I think it’s completely warranted because the customer service we just received was in no way acceptable.
My boyfriend updated some of his information, so we are completely redoing his marketing package for his photography business. We need new business cards with embossing, 6 page concertina-​fold full color mini-​brochures, and large catalogue style photography books with a UV printed cover. Each project requires different paper weights and finishes, and I’m guessing would easily cost well over a thousand dollars when all is said and done.
With so many elements at play for each project, I didn’t want to order online without first seeing some samples of their paper weights and finishes, and to discuss if they are able to do die cuts and UV printing on certain parts of each project. Since I live nearby in downtown, I walked over to their 12^th floor office on the block with my boyfriend to see some of their work samples and discuss the scope of the project.
When we walked in the door, a short, older man with graying hair asked us what we wanted. My boyfriend began to explain some of our project needs and the man literally SHOOED us out of the door while shouting to visit their website. I seriously could not believe he wasn’t even willing to give us the time of day when we were ready to spend a few thousand dollars at their business. Even if they had the best printing in the world, I would never come back after being treated with such mockery and disrespect.

Let me start off by saying that I am always skeptical of places that get a ton of 5 star reviews… but WOW does this place deliver!
The only downside is that it’s a complete pain in the rear to get to the location because there is so much construction going on at the Macy’s plaza in DTLA. The good news is that everything can be done online and you don’t actually have to go! (I found that out the hard way, lol)
I needed a book printed… a very important book to me as it is one my mother wrote before she passed away last year. I wanted it to be perfect (which is why I went in person to see the quality of the materials). Since Guru Printing gave me the lowest price by far of any other printing house (I had quotes that were more than 4 times their price!!!) I wanted to make sure they weren’t going to skimp on quality.
I am SO impressed by the books! They look amazing. I can’t wait to print a second run soon. These guys are the BEST!

Love Guru Printers for all printing needs! I found this place for my nonprofit’s printing needs: outreach materials, gala invites, business cards, brochures, etc. The prices are reasonable, and Ed & his team are just awesome! They have really good communication and customer service. A+
The only downside is the pickup location is a little hard to find the first time around. You park at the Bloc, where Macy’s and LA Fitness is. The walk into the building is a bit of a maze, but the security people are helpful. They also validate parking!
