Small Format Printing

We offer a variety of printing options for A4 or A3 sizes, ranging from standard laserjet printing to more specialist inkjet options.

Prices can be found here.

Laserjet printing is a very quick and cheap printing technique. 

These printers use your print credit on the Papercut system which can be topped up here.

We have the following options:

• 3x Sharp Black/White & Colour Laserjet Printers

These printers are Sharp MX-Series which use a CMYK toner system.

These printers can also be used as photocopiers.

Photocopying is a quick and cheap way of scanning a document or piece of artwork straight to print.

This photocopier uses your print credit on the Papercut system which can be topped up here.

We have the following option:

• 1x Colour Photocopier

This photocopier is a Sharp MX-4071, which uses a CMYK toner system. 

It is also possible to print on your own choice of paper stock, but it must be pre-approved by the CCI Digital Studios technical staff. 

A max of 300gsm uncoated paper can be used on this printer when printing single-sided. If printing double-sided we recommend max 240gsm.

We can be found in Eldon South room 1.125.

Inkjet printing is a slight more expensive and slower printing technique but is of a much higher quality. 

It is mostly used for photographic output but also offers a more accurate colour output for any form of graphical work as well.

To use this printer you will have to use our Print Submission page. It DOES NOT use your Papercut credit.

We have the following option:

• 1x Colour Inkjet Printer

This printer is a Canon ImageProGraf Pro 300, which uses a 10 ink system. This printer can print giclee prints because it uses pigment-inks rather than dye-inks. This extends the life of your print by a huge amount compared to dye-based prints. 

We also stock specialist papers for this printer including:

• Matt - 240gsm

• Semi Gloss - 275gsm

• Gloss - 270gsm

It is also possible to print on your own choice of paper stock, but it must be pre-approved by the CCI Digital Studios technical staff. 

We can be found in Eldon South room 1.125

Risograph Printing is a digital equivalent to screen printing at A3 size. Images have to be processed so that each colour prints seperately, the same way you would prepare for screen or stencil printing. It uses a scanner bed, like a photocopier, to scan your black & white design and print a single colour from a specialist colour drum.
