Description
The Education Graphics Poster Maker™ Gold is a professional poster printer designed exclusively for K–12 schools. For more than 20 years, educators nationwide have used it to create classroom posters, anchor charts, hallway signage, STEM visuals, and school banners in minutes — affordably and entirely in-house, with no waiting on outside print shops. Powered by trusted HP technology, it gives schools a simple, dependable way to produce high-quality educational visuals on demand.
What sets it apart is that it wasn’t a commercial printer adapted for schools. Since 2003, Education Graphic Solutions has built this system in direct collaboration with teachers, media specialists, and administrators — engineered around how schools actually work. The Gold package is our most complete configuration, adding a pre-installed laptop, a high-definition scanner, and lifetime support so your team is printing from day one.
What You Can Create
Schools use the Gold system across classrooms, libraries, cafeterias, athletic departments, and front offices to produce:
- Classroom anchor charts and curriculum visuals
- STEM and science-fair displays
- Hallway, bulletin-board, and directional signage
- School event and athletics banners
- Student recognition and “Student of the Week” displays
- Library, media-center, and safety graphics

How the Gold Poster Printer Pays for Itself
Outsourced posters typically run $20 or more each, and a campus ordering hundreds a year can spend thousands. Printing in-house cuts that to roughly $1.30–$2.84 per poster — a reduction of up to 70%. Most schools recover the cost within the first year through avoided outsourcing alone, and packages start at $2,495. See the full cost breakdown of printing posters at school.
Our poster printers are also Title I funding eligible, and we gladly accept school purchase orders — so it’s easy to buy within budget. Pricing is provided by quote.
From Lesson Plan to Classroom Wall
- Design your poster in Canva, Google Slides, PowerPoint, or from a PDF.
- Print — send the file wirelessly to the Gold poster maker.
- Collect your finished poster in minutes, not days.
- Display it the same day for instruction, engagement, and classroom communication. Many schools laminate posters for long-term use.
