Poster Studio Express Vs. Epson

Poster Studio Express Vs. Canon

 How Much Does Ink Cost?

Poster Studio Express Studio printers are designed to keep full-color poster printing affordable for schools. Ink is priced at approximately $0.61 per ml, and a full-color, photographic-quality 24″ x 36″ poster typically uses about 5 ml of ink, for an estimated ink cost of around $3.05 per poster.

Unlike many competing systems, our poster makers do not require maintenance cartridges, which helps schools avoid unnecessary ink waste and keeps operating costs more predictable over time.

What Types of Paper and Media Can I Print On?

Poster Studio Express Studio printers can print on more than 30 types of media, giving schools the flexibility to create everything from classroom visuals to event signage and durable campus displays. Media options include:

  • Coated and uncoated bond paper

  • Permanent and repositionable adhesive media

  • Gloss and satin photo paper

  • Indoor and outdoor vinyl and PolyPro banner media

  • Fine art cloth and canvas

  • Tear-resistant transparent and white films

  • Backlit signage media

  • Window cling film

  • Wall and floor signage media

This wide media compatibility makes it easy to produce posters, teaching aids, school announcements, hallway graphics, fundraisers, and more using one printer system.

What Software Comes With the Printer?

Poster Studio Express Studio printers include StudioCore, our exclusive software suite built specifically to make poster creation fast, intuitive, and school-friendly. StudioCore is proprietary software included with the purchase of a physical Poster Studio Express printer and is not a standalone web app.

With StudioCore, users can:

  • Drag and drop files directly into the software for fast printing

  • Import photos, PDFs, and office documents

  • Create posters using text, shapes, graphics, backgrounds, and QR codes

  • Access 1,000+ education templates for faster classroom and campus design

  • Use Canva integration to save, export, and print designs more easily

  • Scan and print instantly

  • Save designs automatically in a personal design library for easy reprints

  • View PrintCents Cost Intelligence to estimate poster cost before printing

You can also print from the tools your staff already use, including websites and popular design platforms, making it easy to fit poster creation into everyday school workflows.

What Kind of Service and Support Do You Offer?

Poster Studio Express is an HP Education partner, which means our clients benefit from trusted equipment, dependable support, and access to a broad national service network. According to your current positioning, you also offer direct access to your own support team for remote assistance when needed, giving schools both manufacturer-backed support and specialized help from a team that understands education printing.

Unlike companies that simply relabel third-party printers, Poster Studio Express positions its Studio printer solutions around dedicated school-focused service, knowledgeable training, and long-term support for educators and staff.
