What you need to know: Part 2

Before we start, an announcement (I know this breaks the rule of only one big thing per post, but hey, I'm flexible): The Library has changed its printing system.

For various reasons, we decided to adopt the printing policy in effect at other computer labs on campus both to save paper and reduce printing jams that can occur when a large number of people try to use the same printer at once, saving everyone time and money! This means that if you use our public computers to print something, you'll have to abide by the same rules that you do elsewhere: 5,000 pages for printing per semester. Anything you print out at another lab using this policy -- like the Harkin Digital Lab in the Student Academic Center -- will count toward this total. Here's what you do if you want to print something out:

1. Do everything as you would normally:
   
1. Click "Print."
2. Select Printer 1 or Printer 2.
3. Click "OK."
2. Then go to our printer workstation. It's on the counter by the copiers.
3. Log in.
4. Find your job on the list.
5. Click "Print." This will release the job to whichever printer you picked.
6. Then click "Done."
   
7. Pick up the product.

The default is still duplex -- two-sided -- printing, both to save you money and to Save The Trees. You can change this if you need to; if you find yourself struggling to find that setting, ask at the Service Desk and the person working there will gladly help you!
