School murals and gym graphics, printed on site
Athletic directors, principals and district facilities teams use The Wall Printer® to put mascots, records boards, hallway murals and reading-corner art straight onto painted block and drywall.
Who it's for
Who it's for
Schools buy wall art the hard way: an artist for a week, a vinyl order that takes a month, or a mural that never gets updated. The printer can live in the district and go where the walls are.
Athletics
Athletic directors
Gym walls, mascots, records boards, weight rooms and locker rooms. Change the records board when the record changes.
Schools
Principals and teachers
Hallway murals, values walls, library and classroom art, the school crest at the front door. All printed on site, after hours, on breaks or over a weekend.
Districts
District facilities teams
One printer can serve every school in the district, scheduled around the calendar instead of an installer's. It can be financed, or bought from a capital budget.
What gets printed
School wall murals, gym graphics and hallway art
Mascots, crests, records boards, reading corners, values walls and graduation walls. Full color, white ink standard, straight onto painted block, drywall and brick, up to 11 feet high.
Middle school crest and students, hallway.

Classroom reading corner.
Printed by Divine Wall Murals, West Palm Beach, FL
Sports mural across a gym wall.
What it replaces
Gym wall decals and wraps
Ordered, shipped, installed, and replaced when they peel or the record changes. Printing direct puts the ink on the block.
Hand-painted mascots
An artist's week becomes a printed day, and every school in the district gets the same mascot in the same color.
Banners and posters
Art that's part of the wall instead of hanging on it.
From owners
Printed by owners in schools and gyms
Real jobs, not renderings. These walls were printed by WY Not Print.
Renderings
What it could look like in a school
Renderings, not photos. Every application is different, so ask us about yours.

How a job runs
How does a school mural job run?
01
Set up at the wall
The printer rolls down the hallway on its track and prints up to 11 feet high. Training covers the prep for painted block, drywall and brick.
02
Print around the school day
10 to 20 sq ft an hour. A 100 square foot mascot is a day or two, and the ink cures as it prints.
03
Next school
Same file, same color, next building. A district printer travels in a van to wherever the next wall is.
Which printer
Walls run on the Pro Series or the Tech Series, both vertical UV printers with white ink standard, at $44,995 and $39,995. Gym floors and center court logos run on the Floor Series at $39,995. Every package includes training, lifetime support and up to five years of hardware warranty on new machines.
Questions
Questions about school murals and gym graphics
Can it print on painted cinder block?
Yes. Painted block is one of the most common school walls it prints, along with drywall and brick.
Can a district buy one printer for every school?
Yes. One printer travels in a van to whichever school is next. Districts use financing or a capital budget. See the financing page or call 910-632-0320.
How much does a gym mural cost to print?
The material is ink, about fifty cents a square foot. A 100 square foot mascot is about $50 in ink, plus your operator's time.
Can it print a center court logo?
Yes, with the Floor Series. Every gym floor and finish is different, so send us a photo of the court and how it's maintained, and we'll recommend the approach and what to expect.
Who runs it at a school?
A facilities tech, an art teacher, or anyone on staff who's comfortable with a file. Training is one full day, recorded, and support is lifetime, 9am to 8pm ET, seven days a week.
