About Copy/Print Cards
The initial cost of a copy/print card is one dollar. This cost covers 70 cents for the card and 30 cents worth of copying and/or printing. Copy/print cards can be purchased at the Adult Services and Youth Services desks. You can add money to your card at any time at the library through the photocopy machines.
To collect your print jobs:
When you print from a library computer, the print job will be sent to a Print Release Station.
If you do
not have a copy/print card, you’ll need to ask a librarian for help to retrieve your print job.
If you
do have a print card:
-
Insert the card into the card reader at the Print Release Station.
- Click once on your print job to highlight it (your name will appear in the print job details.) and click Print.
- Money will be deducted from your card and your document will print.
- Click Logoff to retrieve your card.
Tips for printing:
- Before printing your document, select File >> Print Preview. This step will show you the page count for your document and will allow you to select only the pages you wish to print.
This is especially helpful when you want to print something from the Internet and will also help you avoid printing "blank" pages.
- If you want to print your document in color, select File >> Print and choose Color Printer.
