Inkjet Printing
Also known as pigment or giclée printing, our inkjet printers print with archival pigment-based inks on acid-free paper, producing museum-grade prints that will not fade or yellow on their own and last a lifetime. Photographs, fine art reproductions, and illustrative pieces come out wonderfully on these prints. We can print large images on our 44″ Canon printer.
Each print has a 1″ margin all around that cannot be printed on (2″ from either dimension).
Sheets
Our pre-cut sheets need a 1 inch white margin all around, so the largest image size we can accept is 2 inches shorter than the sheet on both dimensions. This white margin does not need to be included in the file.

Laser Printing
Our color-matched laser prints offer vibrant color at high speed and low cost, making them an excellent choice for posters, cards, proofs, books, and magazines. We generate laser prints up to 12″x18″ on plain (normal printer), coated (glossy) and uncoated (copy/matte) paper stocks.
For double-sided printing each side will be charged as a separate print.
Each paper size has a 1/4″ margin all around that cannot be printed on (1/2″ from either dimension).
Glossy Finish
Since the paper itself has a shine to it, the whole print will be glossy. The paper also has a smoother texture than the copy finish.

Bringing Your Own Paper
You can bring your own paper for a 20% discount. We will need both the weight (lb) and grammage (gsm or g/m2) of the paper when you order. The maximum weight we can print on is 110 lbs and the maximum grammage is 300 lb. The largest we can print is 12″x18″. If it is sticker paper, the paper cannot be pre-cut into smaller sections, such as labels.
Stickers
SoA Print now offers full service sticker production! We offer Die-Cut and Kiss-Cut stickers in either a Glossy or Holographic finish. Stickers are charged by the sheet, a minimum of one sheet per order, and it is up to you how many stickers you can fit within the 7.5″ x 9.5″ printable area.
Die-Cut
Also known as Pop Out Cut, die-cut stickers are cut completely out of the backing so that each design can be handed out individually.
Holographic Stickers (Cut)
8.5"x11"
$9.00/sheet
Printable Area is no larger than 7.5"x9.5"
Glossy Stickers (Cut)
8.5"x11"
$9.00/sheet
Printable Area is no larger than 7.5"x9.5"
Just the Printing
This is the price for just the printing, no cutting or finish included. For full sheets of sticker paper, the printable area is no larger than 7.5″ x 9.5″ and anything outside of that space will not be properly printed/cut. We do not recommend using our sticker paper without any finish applied.
Inkjet Vinyl Sticker Paper
8.5"x11"
$2.30/sheet
Printable Area is no larger than 7.5"x9.5"
If you bring your own sticker paper to be printed on, make sure it is compatible with Inkjet Printers. You will get 20% off the printing price.
Kiss-Cut
Kiss-cut means the backing is not cut through, so that only the sticker peels off the sheet. This is a good option for stickers that are to be sold in a set.
Locker Rentals
A storage solution to help you keep some weight off your back. Our lockers are 12″ wide, 35″ tall, and 13″ deep. While they can’t store large art portfolios, they are perfect for keeping art supplies.

Flatbed Scans
Artwork can be professionally scanned at our facility to generate digital images for the web, digital archiving, and printing. Our 12″ x 17″ flatbed scanner is ideal for making high-resolution reproductions or enlargements of artwork of nearly any size. Larger prints may take multiple scans, but the final image will look seamless.
Scans
We charge by the number of scans it takes to capture the image if the image needs to be scanned in sections. Our scan bed is 11×17, so larger pieces will require multiple scans to capture. Pieces will be stitched together for you. The final price is determined after the service is done, but we are happy to give you our best guess beforehand.
Actual Size (300 ppi)
$5.00
Resolution perfect for high quality prints of the same size or smaller
Enlargement (600+ ppi)
$10.00
Resolution good for printing up to twice the size of the original, possibly more
Editing Services
Our scanning services always come with minor edits such as basic levels adjustments and straightening edges. Further edits including closer color corrections and removing scratches and dust particles will be charged by the hour upon request.
Editing Services
$10.00/hr
Such as correcting to our printers, removing smaller dust particles, etc.
Trimming Services
With a sharp and steady knife, we can help you hand cut your artwork down to the exact size you need. For stack cuts with the guillotine we request you allow for a margin of error. We encourage students to cut their own work themselves, and are happy to provide tools and demonstrations for those who need it.
Guillotine
Cutting stacks of 10 – 250 pages all at once. We highly recommend including bleed and crop marks, and request you allow for a margin of error. Maximum final cut size is 11×17. Service is priced by the individual cut, so to trim the margin off all four sides will be $8.00 per stack. Keep in mind the Guillotine can only cut straight through the sheet of paper from edge to edge.
Per Cut
$2.00
Page count range per stack: 10 - 250 sheets
Hand Cut
For a more delicate cut job, or for trimming oversized prints to bleed, you can ask our SoA Print staff to hand cut your pieces down one by one to an exact size. Service is priced by the piece, assuming four cuts per finished sheet. Ample time is needed as rush jobs may cause error or injury.
Per Sheet
$8.00
One sheet at a time.
