Sending files via FTP

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) creates a direct link between your computer and ours through the use of FTP software. You will need a software application designed for FTP transfers, there are many to choose from. If you don't have an FTP application, go to download.com to download a free or trial version of the FTP application of your choice.

Uploading your files:

Step 1: Compress your files (.zip / .sit)
Important: you MUST compress your files into a single file, either .zip or .sit (Macintosh Stuffit format). Uncompressed files can become damaged when transferred via FTP.

Step 2: Launch your FTP application.
Enter the following info:
Address / Host: ftp.recycledpaper.com
User ID: incoming
Password: rpp_give (rpp underscore give - no spaces)

Important: You must Turn Off Passive Mode found in the software you are using before you are able to connect. – you can do this under preferences or options under Firewall or Security settings or Advanced settings. Passive mode is turned on by default. – If you are having trouble finding this feature, please contact our pre-press department at 617-737-9911 ext. 412.

Step 3: Upload your .zip / .sit file
Upon entering the above information, you will be within the incoming directory. Upload your .zip / .sit file now.

Step 4: Contact Prepress
When your .zip / .sit file is completely uploaded, send an email to artwork@recycledpaper.com with the following information:
Your name / Company name / Project Description / File name
