We have all experienced those last-minute printing panics, whether it's an important document for work, an assignment for school, or a flyer for an event. You are not alone.  With over 12 million sheets of A4 paper used every year in the UK, printing is a daily task for many. 

But when printer malfunctions hit, which happens to around 40% of people during crucial moments thanks to issues like paper jams, low ink, or connection problems​, it can feel like an uphill battle.   

That’s if you have access to a printer to start with.  

A significant portion of people in the UK still need to print documents, even though many don’t own one at home. In fact, only about 53% of UK residents own one, meaning 47% are still without. 

This gap and the problems associated with printing led to the creation of Printt, which provides hassle-free printing solutions for those who don’t have easy access to a workable printer but still need to print documents.  

Services like Printt can also be particularly useful for people who only print occasionally and want to avoid the recurring costs of printer maintenance and ink replacements. 

That’s why we’ve gathered answers to the most common A4 paper printing questions to make your next printing experience smooth and hassle-free.
