Azul Prints Alternative? Print My Plans vs Azul Prints Prices

Azul Prints prices by area: $0.50 per square foot for black & white and $1.25 for color at 1–24 sheets, stepping down as the total sheet count on the order rises. A bigger sheet costs proportionally more. Print My Plans charges by the sheet, the same at every size: $1.95 black & white, $3.75 color.

Short answer (checked Oct 18, 2026): at Azul’s 1–24 sheet rates, Print My Plans’ per-sheet price is lower at 24×36 and 36×48 in black & white and in color; on small black & white orders Azul’s free ground shipping (print subtotal $29+) can make it less delivered (see below). Azul costs less for 18×24 black & white, matches us at 18×24 color on small orders, and drops below our 24×36 black & white price from 250 sheets. Azul’s size tables don’t list 30×42.
