Our Equipment
YELLOW – This equipment can be used during Makerspace Staffed Hours.
PDL’s Makerspace is equipped with the HP DesignJet T650 Large Format Printer.
How to get started:
You may design your poster on the Creation Station computers or bring your poster design on a USB ready to print. A PDF file is the easiest way to print your poster. Make sure your PDF file is saved with the exact dimensions you require.
For a quality print, you will need a minimum of 300 dpi, and a higher DPI if you are printing a very large poster. The higher the DPI, the better quality your print will be.
When you are ready to print, please come during Staffed Hours. If you have any questions, please email us at createandmake@portagelibrary.info.
