🖤 What is the USP-S Printstream?
The USP-S | Printstream carries the same clean black-and-white print design as the M4A1-S Printstream, making it a natural pistol pairing for that hugely popular rifle. From The Control Collection (Operation Broken Fang), it is a favourite for cohesive monochrome CT loadouts.
It is a mid-priced Covert that looks premium and versatile in the pistol slot.

📜 History & Origin
The USP-S Printstream arrived in 2020 with The Control Collection, alongside the M4A1-S and Desert Eagle versions. As a collection skin, its supply is tighter than a case Covert.
🎨 Design & Why It Stands Out
The Printstream's glossy black body and flowing white line-work translate cleanly to the compact USP-S. Its main appeal is as the matching pistol to the M4A1-S Printstream — together they make one of the most cohesive CT sets in the game.
📐 Wear & Float Behaviour
- Factory New (0.00–0.07): crispest whites; top price.
- Minimal Wear (0.07–0.15): slight wear; strong value.
- Field-Tested (0.15–0.38): noticeable wear on the whites; budget tier.
- Well-Worn / Battle-Scarred (0.38–1.00): heavier wear; cheapest.
⭐ StatTrak
The USP-S Printstream is available in StatTrak, at a premium — and since the USP-S is a frequently-used CT pistol, StatTrak copies are popular for racking up kills.
📈 Investment Outlook
Its role as the matching pistol to the flagship M4A1-S Printstream gives it durable demand. It is stable and reasonably liquid; clean FN and StatTrak copies hold value best.
🧤 Loadout Pairings
- Rifle: the M4A1-S Printstream — the definitive matched set.
- Knife: a Doppler Black Pearl or clean Fade.
- Gloves: neutral or monochrome gloves.
🛒 Buying Tips & Checklist
Before you buy, run through this checklist to make sure you get the right copy at a fair price:
- Compare across marketplaces — prices vary widely between Steam, Buff163, Skinport, CSFloat and DMarket. Use the live price table above to find the best deal.
- Check the float — inspect the exact float value, not just the condition tier. Low-float copies within a condition look cleaner and hold value better.
- Verify with an inspect link — always open the in-game inspect link to confirm the skin, float, and any stickers before paying.
- Match floats with your M4A1-S for a cohesive clean look across the set.
- Watch for trade holds — keep Steam Mobile Authenticator active to avoid the 7-day hold, and never trade outside trusted platforms.
