Company History

CopySetPrinting opened for business in December of 1985 as CopySetCenter. Situated in the Uptown section of Park Ridge, it was the first store front in an emerging downtown area. Founder Dan Davidson always wanted to start his own company and the copy business was a perfect fit. Dan had worked in the office products field for several years and with the emerging dominance of Macintosh he saw that print would soon be in high demand. CopySetCenter opened for business during perhaps the most difficult month of the year, but with the assistance of his first employees - Dan’s children, Ed and Scott - the business thrived thanks to a combination of technical finishing offerings and customer service.

 

As the business grew the Davidsons stayed ahead of the curve. When they purchased CopySetCenter’s first color copier it created a lot of interest and sales prospered at a rate of 5 color copies per minute! The popularity of print grew steadily as customers wanted a place to quickly and easily print documents and reports. In 1997 CopySet needed room to grow and moved to the 8,500-square-foot old Des Plaines Post Office building on Oakton Street. 

 

Today CopySetPrinting center continues provide numerous print, design and finishing services. Owner Ed Davidson has built the company into a premier, full-service print house featuring state-of-the-art equipement and services. Our talented staff works to develop professional relationships which give our customers trust that we will exceed their expectations.
