Wasted Ink Publishing

​Building the zine community with collaborative print opportunities!

Have a cool idea? Let's chat!
Getting Started: Contact Charissa Lucille to begin the production process. Tell them a bit about the zine you would like designed and/or printed. From there, they will ask where you are in the design process, what your timelines look like, and other details like paper and ink options and pricing. 
Wasted Ink's Offerings: ​
  • Printing: Color and black and white zine & booklet printing 
​
  • Designing: We know zine making can feel overwhelming to some folks. If you want to make a zine but want assistance with the layout and design, we can help with that! 
 
  • Paper: We have a wide range of paper available from regular copy paper to specialty paper.
 
  • Binding: We can bind your projects in a variety of ways including Saddle Stitch (stapled), Coil Binding, and Perfect Binding
 
  • Finished Zine/Booklet Sizes: 8.5x7" (largest option), 8.5x5.5" (common zine size), anything smaller is also an option. 
 
  • Choose your own adventure: We work in a collaborative space and allow zinesters to visit the space and assist with the production of their zines. You want to help fold and assemble? Get on in here! You want to learn how the layout is created? We'll show you, just ask! 

Note: we are currently prioritizing our Wasted Ink vendors for zine printing but we have plenty of room for all printing needs. If we can't print your zines for you, we have a ton of local resources we can provide to help you print your zines. 

Ethos behind printing & designing zines:
Wasted Ink's goal is to minimize the barriers people experience when self-publishing zines and small press booklets. We started designing and printing our zines at home in 2016. We began designing other people's zines for them in 2020 and we want to now provide this service to our community.
Since we began offering printing to our community in October 2022, we have printed and assembled 620 zines and books over 11 projects and hundreds more for our own projects. We are capable of fully designing the layout of your zine if you're in need and we are capable of printing your finished design. We are capable of producing zines in small runs of 15 copies to large book projects of 100+ perfect bound or spiral bound booklets. Since we know and love zines, we are able to help zinesters troubleshoot design issues or roadblocks they encounter. We joyfully do this work in collaboration with our communities and other local presses.

Collaborating with other local presses: 
Wasted Ink Publishing is located within Paper Jam + Print, a collaborative print studio in Downtown Phoenix. The studio is open by appointment only. Learn more HERE!
Wasted Ink is joined in this space by SATURNHEX, specializing in Risograph printing, and Shut Eye Press, specializing in Letterpress. If you need something extra, or a custom cover, we can make it happen!
Wasted Ink also collaborates with presses in Nurture House like Abalone Mountain Press, publishing Native and Indigenous books and zines, and Pachanga Press, specializing in Risograph printing. 

Zines  & Booklets Printed in 2023!
