Shaffer and Warehouse Plot Lab Information
The VPA plot labs offer student’s access to state-of-the-art printing technologies for large format full color printing. Within the lab, we can print on eight different types of paper including Matt-Poly, Adhesive Matt-Poly, Super Heavy Weight, Coated, Vellum, Clear Film, Semi-Gloss, and Gloss Photo. All plot labs within the VPA are staffed with technicians who will assist students with the printing process. All files prepared for the printing process should be submitted through the online file submission form. Riso Lab prints must be done on one of the lab computers and will not need to use the online form.

The plot lab located in Shaffer Art Building will act as a secondary location for large format and Risograph printing accessible to all student in the VPA during all hours of open access. This lab will feature an automated ink press and a HP z5400 plotter. This specific lab will stock all essential paper types for both the Risograph printer and the Hp z5400. The Shaffer lab is staffed with knowledgeable technicians during all hours of operation to ensure ease of access. This space will operate less like a service bureau and more like a collaborative space between technicians and students. All file submission should adhere to the general plot lab guidelines. Students who are looking for a more diverse selection of paper types for printing should visit the Nancy Cantor Warehouse Plot Lab for processing their work. For additional help with common software packages used in Riso printing, such as Adobe Photoshop, please check out LinkedIn Learning. |
