QinPrinting Rated Excellent

Our Range of Book Printing Options

At QinPrinting, we offer a full range of offset book printing services. We also use digital machines, but only to produce hard proofs for checking colour, print quality, and other details. Final production is always done on our superior offset presses.

Offset printing delivers excellent quality and better pricing for larger runs. We also offer a low minimum order of just 100 books.

Short Run Custom Book Printing

Short run printing is ideal for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and self-publishers who don’t need thousands of copies at once but still want the superior quality of traditional printing.

Unlike most printers who require minimum offset orders of 500 to 1,000 copies, we offer offset printing starting from just 100 copies. This lets you enjoy the quality and cost advantages of offset printing even with a small print run.

Portrait, Landscape, Oversized, and Custom Formats

Most printers — in Australia or internationally — charge extra for anything other than standard portrait format. But at QinPrinting, we’re happy to print in landscape format at no additional cost.

We also offer fully customised formats. For example, we’ve printed books as large as 320 mm x 420 mm and others with over 1,000 pages. While highly specialised jobs may cost a little more, our pricing remains among the most competitive in the industry.

Gloss, Matte, Uncoated, and Specialty Paper

You have many options for paper stock to print your book at QinPrinting. Most books use gloss or matte art paper — or uncoated offset paper for interactive titles like colouring books. But you’re not limited to these typical selections.

You can also choose from our specialty paper stocks such as linen finish, vellum, or other textures. Opting for a specialty stock can impact your pricing, but it may be worth it to give certain projects an outstanding, unique look and feel.

Choosing paper and card stock can confuse, but our printing experts are always here to recommend the best paper selections for your book and your budget.

Special Finishes, Lamination, and Foil Stamping

They say you can’t judge a book by its cover — but we all do! Your book’s cover is the first thing a potential reader sees, so it must make a strong impression. Someone browsing in a bookshop — whether online or in person — is far more likely to pick up a book with a beautiful, intriguing, and visually appealing cover.

QinPrinting offers a complete range of finishing options to make your book uniquely eye-catching and attractive.

These options include:

Our Most Popular Book Binding Options

Printing and binding go hand-in-hand. At QinPrinting, we’re proud to offer a complete range of binding options to finish your book professionally. Your choice of binding depends on your book’s genre, purpose, intended readership, format, and more.

With so many options available, we’re always happy to help you choose the best binding style for your book — and your budget.

Let’s take a quick look at what’s possible.

Hardcover Binding

Hardcover Binding

Hardcover books are more durable than most other types and are often seen by readers as more valuable. At QinPrinting, we follow strict quality standards and fine-tuned processes — using only high-grade materials and advanced techniques — to produce beautifully crafted hardcovers. We also strive to offer competitive prices with excellent value for money.

Hardcover binding is a popular choice for special editions, children’s books, coffee table books, high-end art and photography collections, memoirs, autobiographies, history and science titles, and more. For an extra-special finish, consider features like a printed slipcase, ribbon markers, or a dust jacket. Nothing speaks quality quite like a finely made hardcover edition.

Perfect Binding

Perfect Binding (Sewn Perfect Binding)

Perfect binding is the technical term for what’s better known as paperback or softcover binding. Think of the last paperback novel you read — the kind you’d grab at a newsagency, bookshop, or airport. A familiar style, perfect binding is a visually appealing and cost-effective bookbinding option. Although commonly used for comic books and fiction, it’s suitable for almost any genre.

Saddle Stitch Binding

Saddle Stitch Binding

If your book has fewer than 48 pages, saddle stitching is a popular and affordable bookbinding method. It’s commonly used for comic books, colouring books, manuals, workbooks, and more. Saddle stitching binds the pages and cover together using staples — or, for a more durable and attractive result, stitched thread, which gives the technique its name.

Specialised Lay-Flat Binding Options

Not all books are just for reading. Cookbooks, textbooks, diaries, and workbooks are often laid flat on a desk or workbench. At QinPrinting, we offer a range of sturdy, practical printing and binding solutions for these types of books.

Wire-O & Spiral Binding

Wire-O & Spiral Binding

These methods use a punch-and-bind technique. Holes are drilled along the edge of the pages, then a plastic or metal coil is inserted. This allows the book to lay completely flat and pages to turn a full 360°. We can also laminate pages for durability and water resistance, and add vinyl covers for extra protection without losing visual appeal.

Spiral Binding
Ideal for reports, student workbooks, lab manuals, cookbooks, recipe collections, and more.

Wire-O Binding
Wire-O is even stronger than spiral binding, using a double metal loop for enhanced durability. It’s perfect for textbooks, instruction manuals, guides, and any books regularly handled, carried, or used in tough environments like workshops or on site.

Board book binding

Lay-Flat Perfect Binding

This specialist binding offers the functionality of spiral binding with the appearance of a perfect-bound book.

We sew the interior pages and glue them into the cover without attaching them directly to the spine, allowing the book to open flat. It’s a great choice for a professional look combined with practical usability — and it’s the most cost-effective open-flat binding option.

Breathtakingly Beautiful Books at Budget-Friendly Prices

Whatever your book printing project — a family cookbook, a coffee table book, an art book, your memoirs, children’s books, comic books and graphic novels, self-help titles, academic monographs, textbooks, or even your next series of bestselling sizzling romance novellas — you can count on us to handle it with unmatched professionalism, technical know-how, and creative flair. We’ll deliver stunning books you can truly be proud of.

As a major printer, QinPrinting gives you access to a wide range of options — from fine, limited-edition hardcovers with special finishes and extras, to perfect bound trade paperbacks, children’s board books, colouring books, spiral bound workbooks, instruction manuals, and everything in between.

Our comprehensive selection of paper, card stock, finishes, and binding options — combined with the latest in digital and offset printing technology — makes it easy to find the perfect solution for your project and your budget.

The Cost of Book Printing in China

China is globally recognised for its high-quality and cost-effective book printing services. Advanced technology, well-developed infrastructure, a skilled workforce, efficient production systems, and other factors make printing in China an appealing option for customers worldwide — including major publishing houses like HarperCollins and Penguin Random House.

At QinPrinting, our goal is to offer the same cost advantages enjoyed by large publishers to entrepreneurs, small business owners, and independent creatives. That’s why we continually review and refine our processes to ensure we deliver both world-class quality and globally competitive pricing.

Book Printing in China for Self-Publishers

While QinPrinting is based in Shanghai—China’s financial centre and a city renowned for its scenic waterfront, stunning architecture, futuristic skyline, and beautiful public gardens—we provide professional book printing and binding services to clients across the globe.

We specialise in making high-quality, professional printing accessible. Our mission is to support small businesses, entrepreneurs, not-for-profits, and independent creatives from all over the world. We frequently work with self-publishers—including novelists, children’s authors, memoirists and biographers, photographers and visual artists, chefs, and creators of all kinds—from Australia, the United States, the UK, and Europe.

Over the past 25 years, we’ve earned a strong reputation within the global self-publishing community as a trusted provider of printing and binding services. That reputation is built on our technical expertise, efficient production processes, the superior quality of our finished products, and highly competitive pricing. Just as importantly, it’s built on our personalised service and genuine care for every client. We aim to combine the benefits of a global industry with the personalised attention of a small, dedicated team.

Whether you’re self-publishing your work for commercial sale or sharing it with colleagues, students, friends or family, we’ll go the extra mile to produce beautifully printed, custom books at a price that fits your budget.

Specialist Printing Support Tailored to Your Needs

We’ve been working with self-publishers for decades, and over that time, we’ve developed a uniquely supportive range of services tailored to your needs as an independent creative. For example:

  • A dedicated, named consultant will work with you personally through every step of the journey—from your initial enquiry to the delivery of your printed books.
  • Our book printing experts will support and advise you at each stage of setting up your files and preparing them for print.
  • If needed, we’ll provide you and/or your designer with a file template to help with artwork preparation and layout.
  • Our in-house prepress team will manually check all your files to ensure they’re ready for a perfect print run.
  • If we find any issues with your files, we’ll explain what’s wrong, how to fix it, and guide you through the process.
  • Your consultant and our experts are available to answer questions at any stage.

Specialist printing support, at no extra cost

Very few book printers offer this level of service—and many of those who do will charge additional fees. But not at QinPrinting. We understand that preparing your creative work for print can feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time—and we genuinely want your experience to be smooth and rewarding. That’s why all of the services above are included free of charge as part of our standard offering.

We’re always here to help.

Book Printing in China – FAQs

Competitive Pricing

Let’s be honest—it’s more affordable. China offers some of the most competitive offset printing and packaging prices in the world. But a lower price doesn’t mean lower quality. In fact, quite the opposite. The exceptional quality-to-price ratio is what makes book printing in China a top choice—even for many of the largest publishing houses in the US, UK, and Europe.

Advanced Technology

China is a global leader in printing and binding technology, consistently staying ahead with world-class equipment and innovations. The book printing industry here is well-developed and highly versatile, allowing you to produce books in virtually any style, format, or finish you can imagine.

Simple and Efficient Process

With fast and reliable communication online, printing books in China is just as easy and streamlined as working with a local printer. Your files are sent digitally no matter where you print, so the physical location doesn’t affect the design and prepress process. What’s more, most printing companies in China—including ours—operate six days a week, around the clock, thanks to a dedicated workforce and strong work ethic.

Reliable, Global Shipping

Shipping from China is surprisingly convenient and cost-effective. While international freight may cost a little more and take slightly longer, the difference is minor compared to the overall savings and quality you gain. For example, shipments from the Port of Shanghai to the Port of Long Beach in the US can arrive in as little as 11 to 13 days on faster Matson vessels. Whether by air or sea, we ensure your books are delivered safely and on time.

In short, your books will be of world-class quality. You’ll be accessing the same professional printing services trusted by the “Big Five” publishing houses. Like them, you’ll benefit from an established production infrastructure, cutting-edge printing technology, a skilled and experienced team, strict quality control standards, and the pride that Chinese printers—including QinPrinting—take in every job we do.

Yes. At QinPrinting, we take pride in our personalised customer service. You’ll have a dedicated consultant to guide you through every step of the process—real people, real support.

That depends on the type of book, your chosen printing options, and the size of your order. In general, China’s turnaround times are just as fast—if not faster—than elsewhere, thanks to advanced technology and round-the-clock production.

  • Saddle-stitched and perfect bound books usually take around 5–10 days to produce.
  • Hardcover books typically take 2–3 weeks.
  • For large print runs over 10,000 copies, production may take a little longer—but often still faster than expected.

We accept payment by international bank transfer (TT) and PayPal. Your consultant will provide full details and support for whichever method suits you best.

Shipping from China is slightly more costly than using a local printer, but the difference is usually offset by the lower production costs. Per-unit shipping costs are competitive—especially for bulk orders—and when you consider the overall value and service, printing in China remains a cost-effective choice.

Talk to Us!

For the best pricing, outstanding quality, and fast turnaround on any type or style of book, printing with QinPrinting in China is a smart business choice. Whether you’re publishing for a wide audience or a select group, we’ll deliver competitive prices, professional service, and exceptional results.
