=== DETAILED DOCUMENTATION: PRINT PROVIDERS ===

Print providers are the companies that actually print and fulfill your products.

KEY POINTS ABOUT PRINT PROVIDERS:
- Different print providers offer different quality, pricing, and shipping options
- Not all print providers are available for all blueprints
- Print providers determine the available variants (colors, sizes) for a product
- Each print provider has different production times and shipping locations

HOW TO GET PRINT PROVIDERS:
- First choose a blueprint ID
- Then use get_print_providers({ blueprintId: "12" })
- The response includes an array of print provider objects
- Each print provider has an ID, title, and other properties

EXAMPLE PRINT PROVIDER OBJECT:
{
  "id": 29,
  "title": "Monster Digital",
  "location": "United States"
}

NEXT STEP AFTER CHOOSING A PRINT PROVIDER:
- Use get_variants({ blueprintId: "12", printProviderId: "29" }) to see what specific variants (colors, sizes) are available
