Large format printing

2010-05-19T20:07:11Z

Kseitz: /* How do I create a PDF file? */

[[Media Services]] offers a '''large format printing''' service for students, staff, and organizations on campus. Past projects have included digital photography prints, event signs, scientific posters, and various banners.

== Before you begin ==
Please keep in mind, Media Services must follow these guidelines in order to help make sure all requests are handled in a timely manner. We ask that you pay attention to these details as they can directly impact the cost and result of your print request.

=== Intention of offered services ===

Media Services typically performs large format printing for posters and images that are larger than what a standard printer (or 8.5" by 11" paper) can support. This includes research posters for classes, prints for digital photography students, event signs, and so forth.

Smaller prints, such as a 4" by 6" photo, can be printed on everyday printers or at photo processing businesses. While Media Services provides a cost effective and quick way to print larger items, it is more expensive for us (and ultimately, you, the end consumer) to print these smaller items.

There is a color printer in the Olin Hall computer lab that you can use for academic purposes.

=== Request processing time ===

'''Media Services is now strictly enforcing the long standing policy of three business days to process all requests.'''

To ensure Media Services can handle all print requests efficiently and effectively, we require '''three business days''' to process all requests. This due to the lengthy process that is needed to complete the prints, and largely due to the fact that these requests are handled by the student employees of Media Services. In order to meet your request we must:

* Collect all information necessary for printing and enter it into our request tracking system.
* Notify and arrange for qualified student workers to come in and process the request.
* Queue up files in our printer software, as well as perform necessary preflight operations such as resizing images.
* Allow for the RIP software to process the file for printing. Depending on the size and file format, is can take upwards of 12 hours for the computer to process the data.
* Print your request - average printing time for most prints is 20-30 minutes.
* Perform post-printing tasks, such as trimming and lamination or dry mounting (if requested.)
* Process all billing information and create necessary invoices.
**All students '''must''' sign the invoice or pay by cash/check before their prints will be released to them.
* Update ticket information in our system, double-check accuracy of billing information, and notify you of the completion of your print, so that you may come and pick it up.

The following table shows the earliest time at which any print can be picked up, given the submission time. Please note: any request submitted after 5 PM on a weekday is considered as submitted at 8 AM on the following business day.

{| class="fancy"
! Submitted Day !! Submitted Time !! Earliest Pickup Time
|-
| Monday || Morning || Thursday morning
|-
| || Afternoon || Thursday afternoon
|-
| Tuesday || Morning || Friday morning
|-
| || Afternoon || Friday afternoon
|-
| Wednesday || Morning || Monday morning
|-

|-
| || Afternoon || Tuesday afternoon
|-
| Friday || Morning || Wednesday morning
|-
| || Afternoon || Wednesday afternoon
|-
| Saturday || Anytime || Thursday morning
|-
| Sunday || Anytime || Thursday morning
|}

There are absolutely '''no exceptions''' to this rule. We kindly ask you to plan ahead. Thank you for your cooperation.

=== Preflight fees ===
Preflight fees apply to files that need custom resizing, cropping, color correction, or file type conversion.

Some files that are submitted are able to be printed from directly. Others require processing by our staff to ensure that they are prepared and modified to meet the specifications of your request. '''There is a $10 preflight fee for each file which requires custom resizing, cropping, or color correction.''' A simple resize (such as scaling an image to a specified percentage change- "print at 200%") will not result in a preflight fee being charged.

Additionally, there is a $30 per hour fee for files that require manipulation or other editing to have print correctly. '''Our system is unable to support native Microsoft file formats''' (Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, etc.) and should be converted to a postscript or image format. If we are required to manipulate the files or convert them into a PDF format, Media Services is unable to verify that the output is consistent with your original layout unless you provide us with a hard proof to compare to. We will try our best to make it look as it should, but it may not appear how it was originally designed. (This is especially true with Microsoft Publisher and PowerPoint files - avoid them at all costs!)

=== Suggested file types and methods ===

'''Submitting PDF or TIFF files at size is the easiest and recommended way to avoid the above costs.'''
*PDF files are recommended for event signs or posters displaying information.
*TIFF files (or other standard image formats) are recommended for photographs being enlarged.

==== Why should I avoid Microsoft files, such as Word, PowerPoint, and Publisher? ====
There are several reasons why we do not support files created by Microsoft products.
*Our print software is unable to open them because they are proprietary.
*Our machine may not have the same fonts you have on your computer, so text will appear differently (different size, spacing, layout, etc.)
*We do not know how you want your print to look, so if we convert the file, we cannot guarantee the final outcome.

==== How should I design my files? ====
We would recommend using a product like Adobe InDesign, which is installed on all �鶹��Ƶ campus computers. However, we can print any file in a postscript, PDF, or standard image format. As long as you design the file on your computer and then export it as one of these formats, it will look very similar when we print it. If we need to convert the file, it will look different because we do not have the same fonts or software that you do.

The general idea here is this:
#Design your print in any program that you would like. Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Publisher are not preferred, but they can be used.
#Export or "print" the file as a PDF, postscript, or image format ''on the same machine as the file was designed''.
#Verify the file was converted correctly. Check for font sizes, spacing changes, correct font styles, overlapping content, and images or text floating off the side of the page. If the file was exported on the same machine as it was created, it should look quite similar.
#Submit the converted file to Media Services for printing.

Brief instructions are provided below for exporting files to the PDF format.

==== PDF files versus JPEG images ====

When you convert one of your files to a PDF file, the text is saved in a way such that it will look similar on all machines and will not be blurred when the file is enlarged for printing. Using a standard image format, like JPEG, will not maintain this quality, which will result in blurred text.

Please note that there is no way for us to prevent photos from blurring if the resolution of the submitted file is too low.

==== How do I create a PDF file? ====

<div class="message">If you are using <strong>Adobe InDesign</strong> please make sure you use the <strong>export as PDF</strong> option instead of printing the file as a PDF.</div>

===== Mac OS X =====
This technique should work on all Mac-based computers on campus. You can use other techniques also, as long as they create a PDF file. Programs may provide their own "export as PDF" utilities.

#Open the file you wish to convert to a PDF.
#From the File menu, choose Print.
#In the bottom left corner of the print dialog, click on the PDF drop-down menu and choose "Save as PDF...". Give the file a proper name.
#Your PDF has been saved as specified and can now be uploaded to Media Services for printing. Please open the file and make sure it appears how you would like it printed.

Note: Campus computers are also equipped with a "Adobe PDF" printer in the printers list. This can also be used and has the same functionality.

===== Windows XP =====

If you are using ''your own personal computer'' with special fonts, you may save the file as a PDF using Adobe software. You may also download and install [http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/ PDFCreator], a free program which installs a PDF printer option. When you try to print the document, choose the PDF printer (instead of your dorm or office printer) in your print dialog.

Some programs may provide their own "export as PDF" utilities. You may also use those if they are provided.

If you are using a �鶹��Ƶ lab or faculty computer, Adobe PDF tools have already been installed.

#Open the file you wish to print as a PDF.
#From the File menu, select Print.
#Select the Adobe PDF option from the printer drop-down menu.
#Follow any other on-screen prompts.
#Your PDF has been saved as specified and can now be uploaded to Media Services for printing. Please open the file and make sure it appears how you would like it printed.

=== Square footage rounding ===
The cost of a print job is determined by the ''rounded'' square footage for the print multiplied by the number of copies requested. ''In order to cover the cost of waste paper and ink, we must round the final size of each printed piece.''

For example: you request 4 copies of a 11" by 17" print, on a printer costing $2.00 per square foot (including the cost of ink and paper.) The actual square footage of a single print is 1.29, however, this will be rounded up to 2 square feet. Your final cost will be 2 sq ft x 4 copies x $2 per square foot = $16.00 (plus applicable taxes and surcharges.)

Note: we round down if the square footage is less than 1/10th beyond a whole number (ie 1.023 is considered 1).

=== Common print sizes ===

A very common question is "what size do people commonly print this at?" It is difficult for us to answer this question because everybody's needs are different. However, we can try provide you a list of common uses and sizes for prints. If you feel anything should be added to this list, please let us know.

*Display cabinets outside the Dining Center
**These cabinets are slightly larger than a typical movie poster, but keeping your print at movie poster size would likely be the best option.
**24" by 40", or roughly 2 feet width, 3 feet height

== Printing options ==

The following section provides information on the printing possibilities we offer for all print requests. The final cost of the print request is the sum of: all paper costs, ink costs, additional services/supplies provided, and any applicable fees or taxes. We charge based on the square footage of your print request.

=== Printers and ink ===
Media Services now uses two Epson StylusPro large format printers. You only need to specify the media and resolution you wish to print at.

Our printers...
* Use an eight- or nine-ink pigment system which will not fade over time and is high quality.
* Best for high-quality prints (720, 1440, or 2800 DPI) or prints which will be reused or displayed for a long period of time, rated up to 100 years.
* Suitable for short use in outdoor conditions.

==== Ink prices ====
All prices are per square foot and are rounded accordingly.

{| class="fancy" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto"
! Resolution !! Price !! Comment
|- class="odd"
| 720 dpi || $2/sq ft || for long-lasting prints, most course-related requests use this option
|- class="even"
| 1440 dpi || $4/sq ft || higher quality, for Art displays etc.
|- class="odd"
| 2800 dpi || $8/sq ft || Not recommended, as there is no visible improvement over the 1440 resolution.
|}

=== Paper and other materials ===
The following materials are stocked and can be printed on-demand.

{| class="fancy" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto"
! Media !! Price !! Comment !! Maximum Dimension
|- class="odd"
| Medium-weight stock luster paper || $1/sq ft || Works well with most poster needs. || 60"
|- class="even"
| FAB-6 Polyester || $1/sq ft with $25 surcharge|| Lightweight polyester banner fabric which we call FAB-6. There is a $25 dollar surcharge for this fabric since we need to "hot knife" the fabric edges to prevent unraveling. || 50"

|}

=== Other options ===
Provided here are some of the additional services we can provide you. If you have any further questions, please contact Media Services.

====== Foam Core mounting ======
We are also starting to offer mounting of prints on Foam Core, for use on easels, etc. The cost is $15 per mounted piece up to 20"x30" in size; contact us if you need something bigger and we can discuss options and pricing.

====== Lamination ======
We are able to [[lamination | laminate]] prints with one dimension that is less than 26", and the cost is $1.50 per linear foot.

== Calculating final price ==

The cost of your request is determined by calculating the total square footage of the request and factoring in the cost of materials, processing fees, and finishing fees. The most basic request will be charged for the total square footage multiplied by the combined cost of the media and ink. Other more complicated requests may include preflight fees, trimming or mounting fees and possibly lamination fees.

*The '''estimated''' final cost of your prints will be shown when you submit your files using VirtualOffice.

For assistance in determining the estimated cost of your project, feel free to email the details of your project to
Media Services: [mailto:mediaservices@gustavus.edu mediaservices@gustavus.edu], and we will respond as quickly as possible

== Submitting the print request ==
If you are ready to submit your request, visit [[Media Services VirtualOffice | VirtualOffice]]. You may also hand-deliver your request to our office.

Equipment checkout

2010-04-17T06:29:21Z

Kseitz: Updated URLs

[[Media Services]] is the designated office within �鶹��Ƶ Technology Services for checking out all equipment resources that are available for temporary, short term use by the campus community in support of the mission of the college. Access to instructional presentation technologies as well as traditional AV (video, audio, and lighting) equipment for students and employees are available.

If you would like, you may [http://mediaservices.gac.edu/virtualoffice/equipment_newreservation.php reserve equipment] using the Media Services website now. You may view [[Media Services VirtualOffice#Reserving equipment | detailed instructions]] on how to reserve equipment using our system.

==Overview==
Media Services is responsible for managing access to equipment that is available for use by the campus community. To help manage this process, Media Services has created an online system called the [[Media Services VirtualOffice]].

*A reservation must be created before equipment can be checked out. Please make a reservation in VirtualOffice beforehand using any computer on campus.
**Reservations help ensure the requested equipment is available when you need it.
**Reservations may be made a month in advance for some equipment. It is to your advantage to plan ahead if possible.
**You may check to see when your equipment is ready for pickup. View the "My Reservations" page in VirtualOffice. Any items listed with '''ready for pickup''' as the status are available for pickup. However, if an item has a '''reserved''' status, then your reservation is not for the current day or the previous customer has not returned the equipment yet.
*Equipment is available to �鶹��Ƶ students, faculty, and employees. Faculty and employees may have access to equipment that students cannot access. Students in digital arts courses may have access to equipment that faculty and employees cannot access.
**For a list of equipment you can access, log in to VirtualOffice and start the reservation process. All available equipment will be listed.
**If you do not have access to equipment that you feel you should be able to check out, please contact the Media Services coordinator, [[Matt Dobosenski]]. If this equipment is for a course, have your professor contact Matt. Student employees will not be able to grant access to equipment.
*A 3 Crowns Card is required for all equipment check-outs, ''no exceptions.''

Visit Media Services during the specified checkout hours (see description below) and a Media Services employee will assist you with equipment checkout. Assuming the equipment you want is available, then the Media Services employee will go through the equipment making sure everything is accounted for. The whole process takes several minutes, depending on the amount of equipment you need to check out and how many others are checking out equipment at the same time. When you return the equipment, the employee will go over the equipment again, and ask for feedback on issues related to functionality.

===Check out/in times===
Course equipment is available for exchange:
*'''Check-in:''' Monday–Friday, 9AM to 11AM
*'''Check-out:''' Monday–Friday, 1PM to 4PM

As the technological demands of the campus community increase, we try to increase our equipment inventory as well. Recently, we have been expanding the quantity and types of equipment which we allow students and faculty to check out. In order to keep the system fair for everyone and provide access to equipment when it is needed most, our check-out and -in periods will be subject to revision.

If you should find that your needs are not met by this available pool, please contact us via email [mailto:mediaservices@gustavus.edu mediaservices@gustavus.edu] or submit feedback within the VirtualOffice system to make recommendations regarding equipment needs. We will take these recommendations into consideration as we continue to expand the equipment pool to meet the needs of the campus community

== Borrower's agreement ==
All students using the equipment check-out system are bound to the terms of the borrower's agreement. You may find the borrower's agreement when you create a reservation in VirtualOffice or by clicking [http://mediaservices.gac.edu/virtualoffice/agreement.php here].

'''Kevin Seitz''' is a student employee/supervisor and web developer at [[Media Services]]. He spends most of his time making sure every part of [[VirtualOffice]] is running smoothly and all equipment in our office is tracked in our assets management system.

=== I heard you were in the movie ''Up''... ===

Yes, that's me. I'm an extremely large and colorful bird that makes annoying noises and is apparently a girl.

=== Were you being serious when you created this? ===

Not really. It was a rainy April evening and I was helping [[Clark Kampfe]] make his own wiki article/resume for Media Services. If the Helpers can have their own wiki revolution, so can we.

Seriously though... if I'm taking a break from actual code, you should be happy for me.

Equipment checkout

Kseitz: Added links to make VirtualOffice more visible

[[Media Services]] is the designated office within �鶹��Ƶ Technology Services for checking out all equipment resources that are available for temporary, short term use by the campus community in support of the mission of the college. Access to instructional presentation technologies as well as traditional AV (video, audio, and lighting) equipment for students and employees are available.

If you would like, you may [http://mediaservices.gac.edu/equipment_newreservation.php reserve equipment] using the Media Services website now. You may view [[Media Services VirtualOffice#Reserving equipment | detailed instructions]] on how to reserve equipment using our system.

==Overview==
Media Services is responsible for managing access to equipment that is available for use by the campus community. To help manage this process, Media Services has created an online system called the [[Media Services VirtualOffice]].

*A reservation must be created before equipment can be checked out. Please make a reservation in VirtualOffice beforehand using any computer on campus.
**Reservations help ensure the requested equipment is available when you need it.
**Reservations may be made a month in advance for some equipment. It is to your advantage to plan ahead if possible.
**You may check to see when your equipment is ready for pickup. View the "My Reservations" page in VirtualOffice. Any items listed with '''ready for pickup''' as the status are available for pickup. However, if an item has a '''reserved''' status, then your reservation is not for the current day or the previous customer has not returned the equipment yet.
*Equipment is available to �鶹��Ƶ students, faculty, and employees. Faculty and employees may have access to equipment that students cannot access. Students in digital arts courses may have access to equipment that faculty and employees cannot access.
**For a list of equipment you can access, log in to VirtualOffice and start the reservation process. All available equipment will be listed.
**If you do not have access to equipment that you feel you should be able to check out, please contact the Media Services coordinator, [[Matt Dobosenski]]. If this equipment is for a course, have your professor contact Matt. Student employees will not be able to grant access to equipment.
*A 3 Crowns Card is required for all equipment check-outs, ''no exceptions.''

Visit Media Services during the specified checkout hours (see description below) and a Media Services employee will assist you with equipment checkout. Assuming the equipment you want is available, then the Media Services employee will go through the equipment making sure everything is accounted for. The whole process takes several minutes, depending on the amount of equipment you need to check out and how many others are checking out equipment at the same time. When you return the equipment, the employee will go over the equipment again, and ask for feedback on issues related to functionality.

===Check out/in times===
Course equipment is available for exchange:
*'''Check-in:''' Monday–Friday, 9AM to 11AM
*'''Check-out:''' Monday–Friday, 1PM to 4PM

As the technological demands of the campus community increase, we try to increase our equipment inventory as well. Recently, we have been expanding the quantity and types of equipment which we allow students and faculty to check out. In order to keep the system fair for everyone and provide access to equipment when it is needed most, our check-out and -in periods will be subject to revision.

If you should find that your needs are not met by this available pool, please contact us via email [mailto:mediaservices@gustavus.edu mediaservices@gustavus.edu] or submit feedback within the VirtualOffice system to make recommendations regarding equipment needs. We will take these recommendations into consideration as we continue to expand the equipment pool to meet the needs of the campus community

== Borrower's agreement ==
All students using the equipment check-out system are bound to the terms of the borrower's agreement. You may find the borrower's agreement when you create a reservation in VirtualOffice or by clicking [http://mediaservices.gac.edu/agreement.php here].

Lamination

Kseitz: Undo revision 20471 by Kseitz (Talk)

[[Media Services]] offers '''lamination''' services to �鶹��Ƶ students, employees, and on-campus departments and organizations.

=== USI Wide Laminator ===
[[image:usi_2700_laminate.jpg|right|thumb|26 inch laminator]]
Materials up to 26 inches in width can be laminated. The cost for lamination is 50 cents per linear foot. Sales taxes will be added to the total price for students - college departments are not taxed.

We are unable to laminate "waxy" materials, such as crayon or special inks.

Lamination can be performed during regular office hours by student employees. You may wish to call 10 minutes before your arrival if the materials will be laminated "on-the-spot", allowing the machine to warm up to 290 degrees. Additionally, materials can be dropped off, laminated sometime during the day, and picked up in the afternoon or the following day. No appointment is required.

'''Notice:''' We cannot guarantee the results created by the lamination process. A large sum of heat and pressure will be introduced to your papers; thin layers of air may be trapped during the lamination process. We will make our best attempt to avoid such negative effects.

=== GBC Small Laminator ===
[[image:gbc_small_laminator.jpg|right|thumb|12 inch laminator]]
Materials up to 12 inches in width (preferably smaller to prevent unlaminated edges) can be laminated. The cost for lamination is 25 cents per linear foot. Sales taxes will be added to the total price for students - college departments are not taxed.

We are unable to laminate "waxy" materials, such as crayon or special inks.

Lamination can be performed during regular office hours by student employees. Materials can be dropped off, laminated sometime during the day, and picked up in the afternoon or the following day. No appointment is required. However, it should only take us a few minutes to process your request if few things are to be laminated.

Kseitz:

[[Media Services]] offers '''lamination''' services to �鶹��Ƶ students, employees, and on-campus departments and organizations.

'''Note:''' the cost per foot on the large laminator has changed to $1. We are now purchasing different, higher quality (and more "green") laminate material for this laminator.

Media Services employees will choose the best laminator for the size of material you requested to be laminated. When possible, separate sheets are placed side-by-side, minimizing the cost to you.
