The Wartburg Print Center, a division of the Marketing & Communication Office, is located on the south end of the Saemann Student Center (next to the Information Desk). The Print Center’s primary responsibility is to provide printing services to the campus community, but we do provide services for businesses and individuals throughout the Cedar Valley as well. Our business hours are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. (4 p.m. in summer). Projects should come to the Wartburg Print Center in a format ready for printing. Turn-around time for simple projects such as memos and letters is 2-3 business days or less. Jobs that involve extra finish work will require more time. For items that are not simple copies, we request at least two weeks of lead time. Please be aware the current paper supply chain is impacting the availability of certain products.

Design Services
All college offices and departments should work with their assigned account executive in the Marketing & Communication (M&C) Office for any marketing-related (events, recruitment, fundraising, etc.) projects. M&C does not charge for design, video, or photography if the projects are part of institutional marketing strategies. For all non-marketing (letters, course packets, exams, etc.) projects, individuals can work directly with print center staff to complete the projects. In cases where projects do not conform to Wartburg printing guidelines (such as wrong logo usage or improper layout), the Digital Print Center will notify the customer and send it to Marketing and Communication for reworking or design modification. Turn-around will be dependent upon designer availability and the amount of work involved.
Delivery and Security
The print center can deliver any projects on campus when the project is complete. Turn-around time for simple projects such as memos and letters is generally 24 hours or less. Jobs that involve hand collating, folding, or stapling may require more time. Projects with large quantities also will require extra time. If you wish to have exams, quizzes, or other documents be printed in a more secure way, you can let the full-time print center staff know through email or when you submit your job through PrintShopPro. No student staff will be allowed to view, print, or deliver these materials.
