Printing Flyers, Programs and Posters on Campus
Anywhere Prints
Most basic print needs for items such as flyers, programs and posters (up to 11-by-17-inch) can be produced in-house by a department using an AnywherePrinter on campus. Departments may wish to order a 24-pound premium laser paper to have on hand which produces a higher-quality finish than regular copy paper. Paper can be ordered through ODP Business Solutions.
Academic Conference Posters
University Libraries provides conference poster printing services.
Printing with External Vendors
When using an external vendor, the person/department requesting printing and/or production services from the vendor is responsible for initiating the purchase request according to the university’s procurement procedures.
For quick turnaround items such as booklets, table tents and large-format signs, consider local vendors like Banner Up Signs, Castle PrinTech, Le Print Express, Provident Direct and Upstaging.
For printing and mailing large quantities, you may wish to request quotes from several printing and mailing vendors to ensure the best price to meet your specifications and deadlines. Consult with Procurement Services for information on initiating the process of working with an external vendor.
University Marketing Clearinghouse Review
Regardless of where items are printed (whether through AnywherePrints or an external vendor) anything bearing the university logo or sub-brand logo(s) must be submitted for review by University Marketing's Clearinghouse to ensure brand compliance prior to printing. Posters or flyers that will be posted on campus boards must have a poster stamp provided by the Clearinghouse or by Student Affairs (for official student organizations) applied to the document prior to printing.
