Printing, Copying, & Scanning

From Library Desktop Computers

Printing from Library computers is free. You can select staple or 3-hole punch options from the printer menu. Your job will print to the circulation desk on the second floor.

Color Printing & Copying

The Library has a color printer / copier, located to the right of the Circulation Desk. It prints PDF, JPG, and TIFF files. The charge is 30 cents per copy. If you need to print a Word or Powerpoint file, convert it to a PDF first. The color printer is not networked, so please save the file you want to print to a flash drive and then bring that to the printer.

• If you're in a hurry, try our print-only stations. There are two located to the right of the circulation desk on the second floor and another to the left of the reference desk (also second floor).

The Library has four copiers: three on the second floor and one on the third. The middle copier/scanner on the second floor will accept change. There is also a color copier/scanner on the third floor that accepts coins. The others require an ID Express account. A machine for adding funds to your ID card is located near the copiers on the second floor.

The color copier on the second floor and the black and white copier on the third floor also serve as scanners. You can save your scans as PDF, TIFF, or JPEG files. These copiers are not networked, so you'll need to save your work to a flash drive. Flash drives are available for check out at the circulation desk.

• We know it's free, but please print responsibly. This saves trees and helps us keep our operating costs down.
• Watch those PowerPoints! If you're not careful, PowerPoint presentations will print one slide to a page, which is a huge waste of paper. Try printing as "handouts" to get more slides per page.
• Rather than copying print materials, scan them to read on screen. Scanning is free—copying costs money.
