What we’re doing at Thurston Print Lab for your and our safety

We at Thurston Print Lab hope all of you are safe and remain healthy in this unprecedented and challenging period in our nation’s and global history during the Covid-19 Pandemic!

With more time on our hands during the Shelter in Place orders, working on your photographs can be a welcome refuge. You may find this to be a good time for photo editing for your printing needs, and we would like to help in any way that we can.

These are extraordinary times with the many restrictions placed on us and we have gone out of our way to try and serve our clients’ needs in as normal a fashion as possible and that you deserve.

We will now be conducting one-on-one screen sharing sessions with clients using Zoom Video Conferencing and Screen Sharing Software.

• You can download Zoom software for your computer here.
• These screen sharing sessions must be done on a Desktop or Laptop computer only.

When you schedule a Zoom session it will send you a link with the Meeting ID of our Session for you to click on to start our Screen Sharing Session with you.
