The Printer collaborates with emerging and mid-career artists on several Printshop-published projects per year, and many contracted projects daily. The Printer works with the artists by providing artistic advice, ideas, and guidance, researching and acquiring materials, and by fully executing/producing the projects and archiving the artwork. The projects, while often the first printmaking experiences for the artists, are of high artistic merit and professional quality. Some of the most recent artists the Lower East Side Printshop has worked with include Derrick Adams, Dread Scott, Hank Willis Thomas, Jeffrey Gibson, Arturo Herrera, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Saya Woolfalk, and others.

The Printer oversees other studio activities, such as managing studio equipment and supplies, and training and supervising studio interns and volunteers. They also participate in all other Printshop activities, such as exhibitions, fairs, shared studio residencies, tours and workshops, etc. The Printer reports directly to Executive Director and works closely with other staff. They interact with class instructors, resident artists, the Board of Directors, and the outside community such as curators, dealers, collectors, and the general public.
