Library Service Highlight: Poster Printing
Posted: March 16, 2026
Whether you’re heading to a big conference or just need to show off your latest research, the Library team has you covered. We know that large-format printing can feel a bit daunting, so we’ve made the process as smooth as possible.
The Best Part: It’s FREE
Poster printing is completely free! If you’re looking for something more durable or travel-friendly, we also offer fabric posters for $25 (Students: cash only | Staff & faculty: We can accept cash or a fund transfer).
Our printer uses 42-inch wide paper. While we can print quite long, we are capped at that 42-inch width. To get the best result, here is what you need to know about sizing:
- Please try to size your file as accurately as possible to your requested dimensions before submitting.
- If your file doesn’t perfectly match the paper size, don’t worry! We won’t stretch or distort your design. We’ll enlarge it as much as possible to fit the space, though this might leave a small white border on the edges. Your layout stays exactly as you intended!
How to Get Started
Fill out our Poster Printing Survey for your poster request! When you need to submit a poster on the Mesa campus, this survey ensures the library staff has all the information we need to get your poster printed as quickly as possible!
We generally need at least two business days to get your poster through the queue, so please plan ahead!
Once you receive your “It’s ready!” email, stop by the library’s front desk:
- Monday-Friday (8 a.m.-5 p.m.): Our professional staff is on hand to help with technical questions or specific printing issues.
- Evenings & Weekends: Our work-study students are available during all other open hours and will be happy to hand over your finished poster!
Please note: This service is specifically for large-format posters. For regular flyers or standard documents, please use the library’s multi-function printer.
