We print your files as they are received.  If we determine there to be any potential issues when printing your file we will contact you before proceeding.  Any image editing services required by Millyard Imaging are billed at $75 per hour in 15 minute increments.  We will never manipulate or enhance your files without your consent.

 IMPORTANT: It is highly recommended that you calibrate your monitor for proper file viewing. If you are working with an non calibrated monitor we cannot guarantee a color match because your monitor is not displaying color correctly.
