Printing

Public printers are available for students, faculty or staff members who do not have access to their own printer or to a department printer.

Printing to public printers on campus uses a release station system. This system allows a specific print quota for students, faculty and staff and has successfully reduced wasted output. For more information on standard quotas, printing charges, and Plaid Ca$h cards for guests or departments, please see the Quota and Price List pages.

Following are the options for printing to public printers on campus: 

• Print to a public cluster or library printer
  
  • From a cluster computer: see Print to Public Printers from a Cluster Computer.
    Note: Cluster computers are already configured for printing to the printer in the same cluster or to other cluster printers.
  • From your own computer: see Print to Public Printers from Your Personal Computer.
• Print to the CFA Epson Color Plotter. 
  
• Printing from Unix
