CalArts Print Lab
The Print and Media Lab accommodates both traditional and digital processes.

The Print Lab studio is used for producing multiples through silk-screening, etching, lithography or letterpress. It contains light tables, work tables, paper cutters, an exposure unit and various presses.

The Media Lab features a hand full of IMAC workstations that are connected to printers and scanners (both film and flat-bed). Students use this facility for creating print and screen-based work, including CD and DVD authoring and Web publishing. The Media Lab also offers more specialized fee-based output techniques, offered by the Large Format, such as large-format color inkjet printing and vinyl and stencil cutting.

The Large Format currently offers large format printing via an Epson 9800 that can print on a variety of paper (poly film, bond, archival matte, satin, and photo gloss) that is 44 in. wide. For file prep help visit the large format print section of this web site using the link located in the menu above. The Large Format also offeres vinyl cutting on various color vinyl (see operators for vinyl selection), and now offers laser cutting on various materials, materials not provided. For Large Format hours of operation and pricing use the links to the left (hours and pricing are subject to change from semester to semester). The Large Format now offers off hour file drop-off and print pick-up, visit the Large Format if you have any questions or email us at print.medialab@gmail.com.
