Poster Printing Service

We have a free full-service poster printing service, for use by EE department affiliates and to students enrolled in EE courses that require a final poster presentation. To use this service you must be listed as a Stanford Electrical Engineering affiliated author on the submitted poster.


How to get your poster printed

1. To have your poster printed, send your poster in .pdf format to posters@ee.stanford.edu.
  1A.  Include the dimensions (size) of your poster. The paper is 36" [91.44 cm] so the largest small dimension for a poster is 36 inches.
  1B. Include the class / conference / event where the poster will be presented.
2. An automated response will let you know that your poster has been received.
3. When your poster is ready, you will receive an email. The pickup location will be included in the email.

 

General Information

  • Finished posters will be taped to a wall in a location where they may be picked up at any time. Please dispose of the tape!  Do not leave it for others to clean up. 
  • POSTERS WILL NOT BE DELIVERED.
  • During busy periods, no poster will be re-printed until all posters in the queue have been printed once.
  • If there are problems (of any type) that prevent a poster from being printed, the person submitting the poster will immediately be notified so they may address the issues.
  • All re-submitted posters go to the end of the queue.
  • All posters must be submitted at least three (3) hours before the beginning of the poster session at which they are to be displayed.
    • POSTERS SENT AFTER THE THREE (3) HOUR CUTOFF WILL NOT BE PRINTED.
      • Example: I have a poster session at 4:00 PM; I will need to email my poster by 1:00 PM for it to be printed.

More Details

The most often asked question is, "Can you print this poster for me?" So here is how to find out if we can print the poster for you:

  • Your poster(s) will be printed on WEEKDAYS (Monday through Friday) from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM Pacific time on a first-in, first-out and based on the availability of the poster printing folks.
  • ONLY AUTHORS MAY SUBMIT POSTERS FOR PRINTING
    • You MUST be listed as an author on the poster to have your poster eligible for printing.
    • Usually this means that the work presented in the poster must have been done at Stanford. 
    • Posters submitted on behalf of others WILL NOT be printed and if you do this repeatedly, you may lose your printing privilege.
    • We WILL NOT print posters for folks from other institutions attending Stanford events.
  • WE CAN ONLY PRINT POSTERS FOR :
    • EE-AFFILIATES
      • EE-Affiliates are: undergraduate EE majors, EE co-term students, EE masters students, EE Ph.D. students, EE faculty, and EE staff.
    • STUDENTS ENROLLED IN AN EE CLASS THAT REQUIRES A FINAL POSTER PRESENTATION
      • We print posters ONLY to fulfill the requirements of the EE class that requires the poster.
      • Being enrolled in an EE class DOES NOT qualify you to have posters printed for other classes.

 

– If you are not an EE-Affiliate, we are sorry, but we are unable to help. –

– YES, we do check the author affiliation on each and every poster. –

– There is an alternative poster printing service on campus at Lathrop Library.  –

 

In any case, we wish you good luck with your poster presentation and hope that your work is well received!
