Regular Orders:
Please give us two days advance notice that you are going to need our printing service and make an appointment. Printing takes less than 20 minutes. Make sure you print a small proof to check for errors before bringing it for printing.
Large Orders:
Course co-ordinators, researchers or others recommending our printing service to a large number of people should contact us directly to make sure we can handle the volume expected. Let us know if a course poster session or research conference is coming up. This service was intended only for the School of Environmental Studies but has grown considerably. We reserve the right to limit the amount of printing we do in a week. If we cannot help you, there are other printers on campus. Medical Photography in Etherington Hall provides a more sophisticated service and can help with technical problems. There are poster printing facilities in the JDUC. Off campus, Staples and Print Three are able to print posters.
