Poster printing

Printing your poster

NWP Learning Commons has a large format printer for printing posters. Please call us at (780)-539-2939 to make sure the printer is available.

Cost is $1.00 per linear foot. The paper width is 2 feet; the length of the poster depends on your chosen template and design.

Please note that you cannot print directly from a laptop. The file must be opened on the PC that is connected to our large-format printer. If you created your poster on a Mac with Keynote or with another online app, please convert it to PowerPoint or PDF so our PC can open it and print it. You can save your file to your OneDrive and access it on the Learning Commons computer. You can also email the file to yourself.

To print, you need printing credits on your NWP student account. You can use a credit or Visa Debit card to buy printing credit online once you are logged in to your account. $5.00 or $10.00 printing cards are also available for purchase at the Learning Commons service desk with a debit or credit card.
