Testimonials

I received this tiny printing press for my (early) birthday and I’m dying inside. It’s a neat addition to my tiny printing space and fitting for my very real love for very small things.

With these mini prints, printing larger editions, allows me to be able to offer original prints at a more accessible entry price.

Traditionally, printing presses are prohibitively expensive and extremely heavy. Schneider has managed costs in part by shrinking the press down to a 5.7 by 2.95 inch printing area, but includes the usual steel roller and woven blanket found on a full-sized press.
