Printing service

We print (almost) everything on our powerful printers, plotters, and laminators: To send a print job, visit our web shop and take a look at our offer.  

 

Shop

In the store you will find a wide range of products: posters, flyers, brochures, stickers, roll-ups, envelopes, etc. Also we offer different materials and finishing options to the products.

Print data

The store accepts a variety of file formats, each of which is converted to PDF. If the store can process the file format, you can see that a preview of the file is generated.

If you upload a format other than PDF, please check the result of the converter. To ensure the print-out is of good quality, we ask you to send the print data in the correct size if possible. Please avoid printing an A4 page as an A0 poster. 

Invoicing

Note: Only university institutions can use the printing service. It is unfortunately not possible to print things for private use or for students!

Billing takes place 4 times a year, at the beginning of February, May, August, and November. All orders placed by the last day of the previous month will be charged.  

Unfortunately, interim or early invoicing is not possible. For allocation, a valid cost center or WBS element must be selected for each order. Orders without or with an incorrect account assignment element cannot be processed.

Pick-up

After the prints are completed, we will notify you. Please enter the correct email address in the shopping cart. The email address field is prefilled, but you can change it, for example, to a functional address or to the person who will pick up the order.

You can pick up your completed orders during the opening hours of the KIM IT Service Desk. It is not possible to send the product by internal mail.

Price list

Unfortunately, there is no longer a price list, as each order is calculated individually based on the options selected.

For pricing information, please select the desired product and upload your template. The price will then be displayed in the upper right corner. Price adjustments will be announced in good time over "Kurzgemeldet".

Notes

  • In the store, the preview is limited to DIN-A format. If you choose a different format, it will not be displayed correctly in the preview. However, the desired format will be printed! 
  • Bleed is not required for A3+ sizes. Please avoid ordering this size or larger with bleed. For all orders smaller than A3+, bleed is recommended but not mandatory. If you order an order "borderless" without bleed, we will generate the required bleed.  
  • Products with the addition “borderless": These are separate jobs that contain graphic elements up to the edge of the page. If your artwork does not require elements to the edge of the page, the addition of "borderless" is not necessary when ordering your product.
