Graphics Lab

  • Print

The Graphics Lab provides graphic services for the instructional programs in the Dearborn Public Schools. The P.T.A. and other school-related groups that contribute to and support the instructional program, are also entitled to use the Graphics Lab. The operating philosophy is one of "self-help", but the Graphics Specialist will assist Lab customers in producing classroom-related material as efficiently as possible - both in time and material. Some of the equipment available to customers include: high-speed copiers, a color copier, heat presses, laminators, a poster printer, badgemakers, die cutters, computers, printers and many machines for binding & finishing. There is no charge for use of the equipment in the Graphics Lab, but a nominal charge for use of materials (copies, laminate, paper, etc.) - see Graphics Lab Bill below for price list.
