Usage

You can print something transferred to the system via USB drive, or remotely access the printers from the network. These are public computers, and you should not use them for private/secure purposes or communications (email).

To scan documents, use the XSane application from the Ubuntu desktop.

Office Supplies

We have a small cache of pens, pencils, paperclips, staples, staplers, and tape at this station.

Consumables

The color printer is an inkjet printer, and prints up to 11"x17" paper. The black and white one is a laserjet printer, and prints up to 8.5" x 11". We work on a donation system rather than an accounting system to keep the system fed. Suggested donation is $0.05 per black and white print, and $0.25 per color print per side.

We purchase ink, toner, and paper with those donations from time to time. Please do not use paper for your own printer.

Old Media

This station has a 3.5" external floppy reader, a Zip drive reader, and a CD reader (built into the PC). Please do not remove these from the area.
