Where Your PRINT JOBS Go

Sometimes large print jobs such as Power Point slides and lengthy papers or PDF articles might take awhile to print. If you're not sure something went through, PLEASE do not send the print job again. Wait at least 5 minutes, and if the printer or computer is showing an error message, alert one of the service desks.

Printing out multiple copies of a big job WASTES The Citadel's resources and forces the library to purchase paper and toner more frequently. Eventually the budget will be depleted and we'll have to restrict printing.
If you've used other libraries you've probably had to wait in line at a print queue and pay for jobs before you pick them up. We would like to avoid this. Other ways to avoid wasting paper and toner are to jot a call number on a scrap paper instead of printing the whole page from the catalog web page.
Thanks for your help.
