Printing at the AC Buehler Library

1) Black and white and color printing is free for members of our university community!

2) The library has two color printers and five black and white printers.

3) "Printer's Row," on the north side of the main floor, consists of three printer release stations, three black and white printers and two color/black and white printers. We still have one black and white printer and print release station in each of the two library classrooms (room 103 on the main floor and room 008 on the lower level).

4) Our Scanning stations are also on north side of the main floor by "Printers Row." You will need to use your enumber and password in order to print.

4) You can swipe your Jaypass to release your print jobs.

5) You no longer need to wait for the PaperCut print confirmation pop-up box.

5) Each of our printers is now distinguished by the name of a famous Chicago author: Here's a quick guide:
