Duplex Printing

• Available in all residence halls

  In an effort to reduce the amount of paper waste generated on campus, all residence halls as well as specified Learning Commons printers have been fitted with a duplex printing option. Not only does paper waste reduction help preserve natural resources, but duplex printing allows students, faculty, and staff to save on money. Printing one-sided costs $0.08, while duplex charges $0.06. Below you can download instructions on how to set up duplex printing for your computer.
