What is Large-Format Printing?

Large Format Printing Finished Products

Large-format printing refers to the process of producing printed materials on a larger scale than standard printing methods. It involves printing images, graphics, and text on larger surfaces, typically ranging from about 18 inches (45 centimetres) to several feet in width. Large-format printing is commonly used for creating visual materials that need to be noticed from a distance, such as banners, posters, billboards, trade show graphics, vehicle wraps, wall murals, and more.

This type of printing requires specialized equipment that can handle the larger dimensions of the printing substrates (such as paper, vinyl, fabric, or even rigid materials like foam board or metal sheets). Large format printers use a variety of printing technologies, including inkjet, eco-solvent ink technology and resin ink technology, to name a few.

Large-format printing has the advantage of producing high-quality, detailed images that can capture attention and convey messages effectively, making it a popular choice for advertising, marketing, and visual communication purposes.
