A School Poster Maker, also known as a poster printer, poster machine, or wide-format printer, is a versatile tool that can print materials with widths of 20″ or more. These printers are essential for creating large, eye-catching posters, banners, and educational visuals tailored to your school’s needs.

With so many options available, it’s crucial to choose the right poster maker for your school. On this page, we’ve outlined the key factors to consider, ensuring you make an informed decision that fits your specific requirements.

It’s worth noting that the width of your poster printer doesn’t limit the length of your prints. For example, a 24″ printer can produce banners far longer than 24″. One of the most popular banner sizes created with a 24″ printer is 24″x72″, perfect for showcasing messages that stand out.

Cost Per Print

Understanding the true cost per print page is the key to smart budgeting for any K‑12 print program. When you know exactly how many pennies of ink and inches of paper each 36″ × 48″ poster consumes, you can compare in‑house printing with pricey outsourcing in seconds. School Poster Makers’ built‑in accounting tools track every milliliter that lands on the page, every foot of satin photo stock that feeds through the rollers, and even the rare printhead swap.
