Poster Printer

The HP poster printer in Link L204 is now easily accessible to all faculty in the KINSC. All students need faculty permission.

To use the printer please get permission from your Faculty Advisor, and then proceed to a KINSC secretary, either Kay Warner or Annette Barone .

Poster Printer Guidlines

  1. Students wishing to print a poster must sign up 48 hours in advance of their need. They may sign up by sending an email to KINSC@haverford.edu requesting a poster to be printed.
  2. A schedule will be posted on the KINSC website for hours that students may sign up for having their poster printed. Normally, the sign up times will be during regular business hours and the sign up times will be set up in 30 minute blocks to accommodate large printing jobs. A sign-up sheet will be available at KINSC L204
  3. For Faculty, if your student must print the poster outside of normal business hours, we ask that you take responsibility for helping your student print the poster.
  4. Posters for printing will need to be placed in the KINSC Public Read-Write folder in the Departments section of the Storage Server.

Instruction for arranging your slides for a poster presentation

  1. Protocol for Poster Printing
    1. Using the empty Template, Copy each individual slide onto the template
    2. Use the paste special:
      1. for PC users (paste as a metafile)
      2. for Mac users (paste as a picture)
    3. Adjust the dimensions
    4. Please save your pictures as a jpg and at a low resolution
    5. If it is necessary to have the higher resolution on your pictures, then please have the poster ready early so that the processing on the printer (which can take as long as 1 hour) will not tie up the printer for others to use to meet deadlines.
  2. Printing your poster on a poster printer
    (WARNING: If it was created on a Mac - then print from a Mac; if it was created on a PC then print from a PC)
    1. Ensure that the poster printer (INSC_L204P) on \\accprinters is installed. Printer is available for faculty printing only. You need to be signed on as an administrator in order to print
    2. Plug in the network cable of the printer into the top far left socket
    3. Put the printer on
    4. Your poster should be set for dimensions of at least 41 inches by 41 inches in page set up in power point. Posters can also be prepared in MS Word.
    5. Select print
    6. On the print menu, select the poster printer
    7. Go to properties. Page layout: Tick 'enable scaling'. Under scaling options, select 42 X 60 or larger if necessary. $2 is the width of the paper. If the height of your poster is 42, you should have it set as 'portrait'.
    8. On the main menu scale to fit paper

Print quality: Normal is excellent

To print from a pdf file:
The paper size in page set up does not matter.
Set poster size in 'properties' as for ppt
Select 'Fit to paper' in page scaling on the main menu
