Designed as a space for production and experimentation, the center provides both technical and educational support to students who wish to produce printed objects. It is involved in every stage of the process, from design to distribution, and plays a central role in passing on technical knowledge across departments, fostering a better understanding of the issues involved in print production.

Beyond its teaching and technical missions, the center is also a place for research and reflection on publishing and printing practices. It collaborates with artists, designers, and publishers, encouraging interdisciplinary exchanges around the printed object.

• A3 Digital Printing Workshop:
