Plotter Printing

Posters can be printed within two to three hours but we ask that you allow up to one business day for printing. Please email sbmiweb@uth.tmc.edu to submit your poster file.

For anyone requesting poster printing who plans to use a specific account, please send email confirmation from the individual in charge of said account noting the account number. If you are the person responsible for the account funds, please indicate such in the email. All others please note that we will not print posters without an email confirmation from the person responsible for the account.

We do not provide proofs and we do not offer free reprints. We recommend that you create a PDF version of the poster and fit to print on a sheet of paper to get an idea of how the file will print.
