Two-Sided Printers II

Q:
Thank you for the double-sided printer! PLEASE provide more of them!!! (always very crowded and confusing to figure out who's printing when). Thank you.

A: Christopher Cox, Interim Director of Libraries, responds...
Thanks for your request. We've received similar requests from students regarding offering additional duplex or double-sided printers in the library. As mentioned in a previous response, this decision was made by the Student Technology Commission of the Student Senate due to the costs of having so many duplex printers on campus. The duplexers used in the library and throughout campus had a short lifespan and were prone to jams resulting in costly repairs.

Complaints regarding this decision should be referred to the Student Technology Commission. Your requests will enable us to install additional printers in the future.

Thank you for your feedback. The decision to move from duplex to single-sided printers was made by the Student Technology Commission, due to the costs of having so many duplex printers on campus. The duplexers used in the library and throughout campus had a short lifespan and were prone to jams resulting in costly repairs. In the library as well as in other labs on campus, you will now find a more robust duplex printer with single-sided printers to be used otherwise.

We apologize for any inconvenience. Complaints regarding this decision should be referred to the Student Technology Commission. Due to increased print volume, the library hopes to acquire one more duplex printer in the near future.
