Follow these helpful hints to maximize your
printing quota:
Print ONLY what you absolutely need to print.
Select your printer! Print using the following
Method: Go to the File menu and choose Print. When the Print window
appears, select a printer appropriate for your location. The default
printer is Adobe Acrobat on ESF Computing Center and Public PCs. This
means that not selecting your printer will cause your print job to be
saved to a .PDF file and not sent to a printer.
Double-sided printing (duplex printing) is available
on all Computing Center printers and the printer located in 103 Moon
Library (for use on the main floor of Moon Library).
To duplex:
 | Go to File --> Print and then select the printer. |
| Click the Properties/Preferences button. |
| On the 'Printing Shortcuts' tab, select 'Two-sided (Duplex)
printing' and click OK. |
Print multiple slides per page. If you are given
a PowerPoint file for a class and absolutely need to print it, you can
save paper and print quota by printing more than 1 slide per page.
To print multiple slides per page from within PowerPoint:
| Go to File --> Print and then select the printer. |
| Under 'Print What:' select 'Handouts' |
| Select the number of slides you want per page |
Beware of complex print jobs and
Poison .PDF files! Sometimes, very complicated PowerPoint files and
certain .PDF files can cause our printers to respond slowly or not at
all. If this happens with a file you are printing, inform the staff in
317 Baker Labs and the owner of the file (the Instructor, for example).
