Staff and faculty can either:

   1. Complete the required details.

Do you supply toner for other printers (HP, Canon,etc)?

No, only toner and staples for Ricoh printers are supplied.

Toner for HP, Canon printers must be obtained separately by departments through your standard procurement process.

What is the Find Me print queue?

Find Me allows you to hold a print job in the queue until you sign into a printer and release the print job.

This allows for secure printing in shared spaces.

Staff should, by default, always print to the Find Me queue unless the printer is located in a private office.

The Find Me queue is available on all College staff and lab computers when printing documents.

Where can I find printers that support Find Me queue?

Any printers equipped with an interactive display and barcode reader will allow print release from the Find Me queue after you've logged into the printer.
