Printer Options

University Managed Print Services

In 2016, the university conducted a review of copier and network printing on campus. It was determined that it would be in the university's interest to consolidate resources and move to a shared device model, under a common service contract. All academic and administrative departments should utilize the centrally located shared multifunction copier/printers to help reduce hardware and service costs, as well as reduce waste.

Ordering Process

All printer requests (with appropriate approvals) must be submitted to ITS via a support ticket.  Toner supplies and paper are acquired from Central Stores. Questions about this process can be directed to the Manager of Technical Services.

Individual Office Printers

The option below is available only to faculty offices with chair/dean approval. Administrative offices should seek consultation from the Manager of Technical Services.

Office printers MUST be connected to the network to provide consumption data for monthly charges.  This requires the office to have an extra Ethernet data port for the printer.  If a port does not exist, the department must secure funding for its installation prior to printer installation.
