Printing
Printing in the GPLabs is from one colour and two black and white high-speed laser printers located in the halls in the center of the by Ewing 110 ground floor. These printers will do single or double sided printing. You can only print on the paper provided and are not permitted to use your own, be it paper or transparency. If you need to print on transparencies or specialty stock, please go to your Audio Visual department or the Printshop for your campus.
There is a charge for printing. The print management software informs the user what they will be charged before a document is printed. Printer account "top up" cards maybe purchased from the campus Bookstores, Registration Cashiers and from the Library.
