IngramSpark charges $49 per title just to set up. Paperback? $49. Hardcover? Another $49. Then there's the markup on every copy you order.

KDP Print gives you “free” printing but locks you into Amazon. Want to sell at a book signing? Stock a local bookstore? Give copies to friends and family? Too bad. Those books live on Amazon and nowhere else. Oh, and Amazon takes 40%.

Local printers will do it. $5-15 per copy, minimum 100 units, and you're storing boxes in your garage for the next three years.

You just want physical books at actual cost, delivered to your door, in any quantity. That's it. That's the whole product.

Printing without the nonsense.

Zero setup fee

No $49 per title. No per-format charges. Upload your files and get a quote. That's it.

No minimum order

Need one copy? Order one copy. Need 500? Order 500. We don't care. Your book, your call.

Authors who hold their books.

I ordered 25 copies for a signing event. They arrived in a week. People couldn't tell the difference from a Big Five title.

IngramSpark charged me $49 just to set up my paperback. Then another $49 for the hardcover. BookPrinter? Zero.

I sell at farmers markets. Being able to order 10 copies at a time at cost price changed my margins completely.

My local bookstore wanted 5 copies on consignment. I had them printed and shipped in 4 days. Try that with KDP.
