Poster Printing

• Standard Turnaround– 24-48 hours - Posters submitted by 10am are typically printed by 4:30pm the next working day.
• Same Day Rush– Posters needed in less than 24 hours are subject to a $35 rush fee
• Half Day Rush– Posters needed in 4 business hours or less are subject to a $55 rush fee

Rush services will be determined and applied by UIC staff based on the time of submission and requested due date

Additional turnaround considerations when submitting an order:

• Orders will typically be completed by the end of the day (~4:30 p.m.) that they are indicated as due. We are not able to accommodate specific due times beyond this.
  • Orders needed by a specific time should be submitted with a due date of the day before.
  • E.g. If your poster is needed by 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, your poster submission should indicate a due date of Tuesday, and we will complete the order by 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
• Orders will be processed during standard business hours Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., excluding observed University holidays
  • Orders that are submitted outside of standard business hours will be treated as having been submitted at the beginning of the next available business day
• If the difference between order submission time and 4:30 pm on the date it is due is less than eight hours, UIC staff may determine and apply an addition charge in the form of a rush fee

Due to trimming constraints, we accept posters up to 72" on the long edge.

If your poster is longer than 72" on the longest edge but is exactly 60" (cloth), or 50" (standard semi-gloss) wide, we will also accept. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns regarding sizing.

Travel Tubes are simple telescoping mailing tubes to keep your poster safe while traveling.
