    Printing on Campus

    • You can help conserve valuable resources. Do not print large files unless it is absolutely necessary.
    • Users are urged to use the “Print Preview” command before submitting a print job. Once you are satisfied, you can print the final document.
    • Please print double sided when possible and make sure to check all of your printer settings are what you want before hitting print
    • We strongly urge users to print a maximum of 4 pages at a time for PowerPoint slides and Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Notice that these files take longer to print as it takes more memory. Many users might be trying to print at the same time so please be considerate of other users. When the printer receives numerous print jobs at the same time, memory overflows and paper jams might occur.
    • Printing is secure and your print job will not be released until you use your ID to release it.
    • Print jobs can be released from any printer on campus.
    • In case of a paper jam, low toner or any other problems contact the user consultant for assistance. If the user consultant is unavailable, call the ITS Help Desk at Ext. 3727 during normal business hours.
