In-House Plotting
AIAS has taken over the operation of the undergraduate plotter within CALA. The policies and prices will stay the same as in the past. Please read the 'Guidelines for plotting' document provided below.
Plotting is available every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday night. Files must be received by 10:00pm to be included in the print job for that night. Your plots will be available for pickup from 11am-12pm every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the AIAS office (room 206, West Building).
Please contact us at uaaias@gmail.com if you would like to make special arrangements for your plotting to be done.

Other Plotting Resources in Tucson
There are other places which offer large format printing in Tucson. While the AIAS plotter is convenient, there may be times due to high load, or operating hours that we cannot plot your job before the due date. Here is a list of the most popular large format printers in the area. Most offer student discounts, just ask when they ring you up! Click their name to be taken to their websites.
