How Much Does an A1 Poster Cost to Print? (A0–A3 Price Guide)

Poster pricing scales with paper area and quantity. As anchors: 100 A4 posters cost £35 at Minuteman Press Ipswich, and single large-format posters on 200gsm satin typically run from around £10–£20 at A1 depending on stock — exact live prices are on the poster prices page, published rather than quoted.

What you're paying for

Factor	Effect
Size	Roughly doubles per A-size step up (double the paper)
Quantity	Steep unit-cost drop on runs — 100 A4 at £35 is 35p each
Stock	170gsm poster paper < 200gsm satin < photo/backlit media
Turnaround	Same-day possible on most posters

Single poster vs a run — different machines

One A1 conference poster prints on a wide-format machine (sizes explained); 200 A3 gig posters run on a production press. That's why "how much is a poster" has no single answer — quantity changes the economics completely, in your favour.

How to pay less

Choose the smallest size that works at your viewing distance (DPI and distance guide); print event posters in one dateless design you can reuse; and supply a clean PDF so nothing needs pre-press time.

Laminating and mounting

Lamination protects posters that live in weather or get handled; foam-mounting turns a poster into a self-supporting display — see board options if it's going outdoors.

FAQ

Cheapest A1 option? Standard poster paper, unlaminated, collected. Can I order one single poster? Absolutely — no minimums. Same-day A0? Yes, usually, with a correct PDF by 1pm.
