Experiencing difficulties when trying to utilize Staples Printing services for your blueprints? Many users rely on Staples for printing architectural drawings and similar large format documents. However, uploading files to Staples.com for blueprint printing isn’t always seamless. One user recently encountered a frustrating error while attempting to print a layout PDF as a blueprint through Staples.com.
Initially, the user prepared their PDF blueprint file, ensuring a straightforward filename without special characters. Despite these precautions, the Staples website returned an error during the upload process. Further investigation into the PDF’s security settings confirmed that there were no restrictions preventing printing or access. The user also checked for any stated file size or format limitations on Staples’ website but found none applicable to their situation, other than the known restriction of photo images not being suitable for blueprint printing. Their layout included elevation and perspective views, standard elements in architectural drawings, and none were knowingly converted to image formats that might violate the service terms.
Seeking clarification, the user contacted Staples customer support directly. The support representative confirmed the absence of file size limitations and reiterated the image restriction for blueprint services, suggesting poster printing as an alternative for image-heavy files. The representative also proposed consulting the software technical support for potential PDF file-specific security or parameter issues. However, before pursuing software-specific inquiries, the user decided to reach out to the Staples.com user community to see if others have encountered and resolved similar upload problems.
