FYI Friday: Wireless Printing at the Library

For a long time, patrons have been able to use the library’s computers for anything from browsing the internet, to working on and printing school or business documents. But did you know that the Library now offers a mobile printing service, so that patrons can print wirelessly from anywhere?

For a long time, patrons have been able to use the library’s computers for anything from browsing the internet, to working on and printing school or business documents. But did you know that the Library now offers a mobile printing service, so that patrons can print wirelessly from anywhere?

Thanks to the installation of our new printers and photocopiers, patrons can now print most documents from their own devices, rather than needing to log on to a Library computer.  In addition to printing from laptops, patrons can print from any internet-enabled device, including phones and tablet, or even from their home computers! Just follow the instructions to send your print job, then visit the Library within 24 hours to print your document.

Wireless print jobs cost 10¢/page for black & white copies and 25¢/page for color copies – the same price as printing from a Library computer. Wireless printing is compatible with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, and JPEG picture files, but Microsoft Publisher is not supported. Job sizes must be under 25MB per file.

Visit the Wireless Printing page on our website for instructions on printing wirelessly, and to learn more about it.
