Poster Printing

Printing Your Poster for Pick Up or to Be Hung for You

To make your meeting experience as seamless as possible, ENDO is pleased to provide a convenient, competitively priced poster printing service that allows you to order your poster for printing then pick it up on-site at the meeting at no extra cost. ENDO is pleased to introduce our new printing partner, Genigraphics, which specializes exclusively in research posters offering you the highest quality of customer service. All posters will receive a complimentary design review to check for image issues, table/chart legibility, etc. when ordered through Genigraphics. As an extra convenience, we are pleased to offer a *NEW* hanging service through Genigraphics. Simply add the hanging service to your print order and Genigraphics will hang your poster in its assigned location prior to the start of the poster session. 

To Use the Printing Service: 

Please go here to download free PowerPoint poster templates sized for our meeting, to view pick up hours, and to order printing and hanging services. For more information on their pricing, FAQs as well as step-by-step instructions, click here.

Plan Ahead printing order deadline is 1:00 PM CT on Wednesday, June 25, 2025.

RUSH order deadline is 1:00 PM CT on Tuesday, July 1, 2025 (rush fee applies)

Do not print posters on thick or heavy materials such as poster board or vinyl. The material your poster is printed on must be able to be mounted for several hours with pushpins. High-quality paper or fabric posters will stay in place with pushpins.

Print on matte material if possible (glossy results in glare). 

Providing printed copies of your abstract (posted next to your poster or placed on the floor underneath your poster board) is helpful for attendees viewing your poster when you are not standing next to it.
