Digital Printing Facility
This facility provides photographic quality inkjet prints on a variety of papers, in cut sheet sizes and roll format. The facility contains a number of large format printers capable of producing prints up to mural size on a number of different paper surfaces. Please note that students do not print the files themselves. There is a charge for all prints made and a price list is posted at the facility.
