Printing Services

EIC has now the capability of printing large posters up to 34 inch in width. You may select from photo glossy paper to other materials. Also, we have the capability of laminating your poster.

Printing Sizes

The shortest edge of the printable area must not exceed 34 inches. When we prepare the document for printing, we add a one (1) inch margin around the document (one inch top, bottom, left and right).

Poster layout should be made to actual final print size. Text and images should be kept to at least 1 inch from the edge of the poster.

File Format

Printing jobs can be submitted in the following formats: PDF, JPEG, TIFF and PPT. Poster layout should be made to actual final print size. Turn around time will vary according to our workload. It is advisable, to submit your job request at least two to three days in advance.

Poster Cost

There is a setup fee of $ 5.00 dollars per poster. The cost of your poster will be calculated based upon: the setup fee, the actual length of the poster, and the quality of the paper.

Jobs that require additional service such as re-structuring of the printing area, etc., will incur in an additional fee of $ 25.00 for the first hour and $ 25.00 for any additional half hour.

Print price of posters using regular poster quality paper is $ 0.25 per running length of paper plus any other additional charges: (Setup fee + length of poster x $ 0.25 per inch +any other fee)

For example, a poster with dimensions of 34 inches width by 60 inches length printed on regular poster quality paper will cost ($ 5.00 + $0.25 x 60 inches) $ 20.00.

Print price of posters using photo glossy paper is $ 0.50 per running length of paper plus any other additional charges: (Setup fee + length of poster x $ 0.50 per inch +any other fee)

For example, same poster above printed using photo glossy paper will cost ($5.00 +$0.50 x 60 inches) $ 35.00

Posters with color backgrounds and/or large solid frames will be charge an additional fee of $ 0.25 per running length for regular paper and $0.50 for photo gloss paper.
