Graphics Lab

The lab provides large format printing and mounting.

How to submit a poster for printing:

  • Please access the Graphics Lab form, by signing in and filling out here: https://drexel.my.salesforce.com/apex/bmcservicedesk__ssredirect?type=sr&id=a3Y5c000001MhHrEAK
  • Cost for printing is $4/ square foot and an additional $2/ square foot for mounting.
  • Cash, Check or Interoffice charge are accepted.
  • **NOTE: When starting to build your poster set the “canvas” size to the desired print size. We DO NOT do any resizing, editing, consulting, adjusting on any posters. What is sent is what is printed. If a change is needed after sending a poster in and it has already been printed, it means payment will be required for both.
  • A standard poster size is 36" X 48”
  • The largest poster we can print and cut is 59” X 59”
  • We can print longer than 59” but customer will be responsible for cutting
  • The largest foam board mounting size is 39" x 59."
  • All prints are done on Luster 260 paper (semi-gloss). Color or B&W are the same price.
  • PDF is preferred format.
  • Plan ahead. The lab sometimes has a slower turnaround due to large volume.
  • An additional Rush fee,$20, will be added to all requested expedited orders and when the lab is experiencing a high volume of requests. The rush fee protocol is at the discretion of the Graphics Lab, and orders cannot be guaranteed, are handled case to case, and determined by volume and technician availability.
  • You will be contacted by a technician asking if you agree to the rush fee.
  • Please call or submit a question ticket if you have any concerns or questions about a poster request. If you know you will have a large amount of posters please contact the Graphics Lab and discuss due dates, both when you need the posters by and when we would need all the posters submitted to have time to handle the order.
