Printing

Need to Print? »

 

We have changed how printing in the Warner College works.
College students can print at any one of the labs located within the Michael Smith Natural Resources building. All print jobs are sent to HandPrint, where the print job is held in a print queue until they are released by the student, using their Ram Card.
So instead of picking the printer that you want to print to, you simply print to HandPrint then go to the printer that you want it to come out at. By scanning your Ram Card the printer will show you what print jobs it has available to print from you and then you select what you want to print and tell the printer to print your job.
If the print job is not released, it will be deleted after 24 hours. This prevents waist from selecting the wrong printer and sending your print job to the wrong place or to a locked room. Nothing is actually printed until it is released at one of the printers.
We have Xerox printers located in the first floor lab, both a black and white and a color printer. We have one located on the second floor by the main atrium stairs.
We also have the Xerox department printers set up for Geo, HDNR, FRS and FWCB that are also part of the HandPrint system that print jobs can be picked up at.
The College also offers plotter printing for large posters, maps, and other projects. The plotter is only available in the CAL Lab (MSNR 107A). To get something printed for the plotter, stop by the lab attendant staff desk within the CAL. All you’ll need your CSU ID and a USB drive with the document (PDF format required for plotter printing) you need printed.
