Printing at the Dewey Library

This time of year, many students have questions about printing in at the Dewey Library. We have two black and white printers at Dewey, one on the main floor at the end of the computer area, and one in the basement area. In addition there is a color printer behind the slide show screen.

In order to print, you must have a SUNYCard or a Podium card with money on it. Black and white printing is ten cents per page and color printing is fifty cents per page. From the Information Commons computers or your wireless laptop, select print as you normally would. Then select either “DeweyLibBW��? for black and white or “DeweyLibColor��? for color printing. Walk over to one of the printers and slide your card at the terminal. The monitor will display all jobs in the print queue. Select your job, and click print. Remember to log out of the Uniprinter right away so that others cannot use your account to pay for their print jobs. Your document should come out of the printer, provided there was enough money on your card to pay for the job.

You can put money on your SUNYCard several ways. First, you can phone or visit the SUNYCard office (442-5989, Campus Center B52), you can pay by credit card online through PodiumNet , or you can use our SUNYCard terminal. If you did not bring your SUNYCard, you can buy a Podium card at the machine, but remember this card costs one dollar, and then you have to add money to it on top of that. So remember to carry your SUNYCard at all times!

If you have problems printing, check with the ITS consultant on duty. He or she is sitting next to the printer in the Information Commons area on the main floor, and will have a sign on his or her terminal. When there is no ITS consultant on duty, check at the reference desk or circulation desk for assistance.
