New Printers on Campus

The printers on campus have been upgraded to new Ricoh multifunctional devices! This means that students can now print, copy and scan at any student printer. Please note that printing charges will return as of Monday, August 24.

All college lab computers can send print jobs to any student printer on campus. Students send their printing to the following printing queues:

  • Student-Black-White-Printer
  • Student-Colour-Printer

To release your printing, go to a black and white or colour printer (locations below), and log in directly to the printer with your Computer User ID and password. Detailed guides for the printers can be seen below. 

How to Print Guides for the Printers

Students now login to the printers directly with your Computer User ID and password, instead of using a printing release station. Please review the guides below for more information.

Notes:

  • Print jobs will be kept in the queue for 24 hours. All print jobs will be deleted after this time.
  • Jobs are printed only after the user arrives at the printer and confirms their identity. This ensures the user is present to collect their job and other users can't "accidentally" collect the document.
  • Any print job sent to Student-Black-White-Printer can be printed at any B/W printer in any of the rooms listed below.
  • Any print job sent to Student-Colour-Printer can be printed at any colour printer in any of the rooms listed below.

Generally no shared devices have legal sized printing. 

Can I print from my personal laptop?
No. Only Langara PC or Mac workstations can access/install shared printer queues on campus. 

Can I print from a USB flash drive?
No, as a necessary security measure, the College decided to have USB printing disabled on the new printers.

At this time printing is not supported on wireless networks. We are in the process of working towards enabling this in the future.

PaperCut is the software used in the new MFDs. To become familiar with the new software, please review the training materials.

Where can I get support for printing issues?
