Printing in the computer labs
You print as you would from any computer:聽Windows Button/Print/Print听辞谤听Ctrl+P.
- To change your printer, click on the drop-down list at the top of the printer window. Your choices are 天美传媒 Cloud Printing Lansdowne or 天美传媒 Cloud Printing Interurban.
- To access more print options, click on the聽笔谤辞辫别谤迟颈别蝉听button after you've chosen your printer.
- 搁别尘别尘产别谤:听天美传媒 printers default to double-sided, so you must聽肠丑辞辞蝉别听single-sided if that is what you want.
- PaperCut monitors your choices and deducts the appropriate amount of credits from your account when you print.
- We encourage everyone to print double-sided to save trees and money!
- Now just go to an available printer, log in, and get your print job.
If a printer jams
- If the printer jams during the printing of your job, immediately contact the聽Lab Tech聽for that lab. They can reimburse your account for print jobs that did not print properly. Print to another available printer.
Colour printing
In order to print in colour, you simply need to go to a colour printer and log in. Check the Printer Locations tab to locate the closest colour MFD. They are also labeled on the top of each machine.
- Colour printing is about four times more expensive than black and white printing.
- Printing a black and white document to a colour printer costs 1垄 more than printing to a black and white printer.
Wireless printing
Printing from portable devices (laptops, netbooks, etc.) to some college printers/*MFD's is made possible through PaperCut鈩 by using the built-in "Web Print" feature. With this method, there is no need to download and install any print drivers or software. All you need is:
- Access to the Internet
- A valid PaperCut鈩 account
- Sufficient print credits for the job you want to print
*MFD聽stands for multi-function device. This means that the machine is able to photocopy, scan and print. MFD's look like copiers. Not all student printers will be available for wireless printing. When you log in to the PaperCut鈩 web interface and choose to send a job using Web Print, you will see a list of聽wireless聽devices. If a device is not in the list it means that wireless printing is not enabled for that particular machine.
