I’ve heard it costs a lot to replace toner in the printer.  How can I help?

  1. Only print in color when absolutely necessary.
  2. Learn to reduce the size of your photos.
  3. Print handouts (3-6) slides per page instead of full page slides when printing from Powerpoint.  Never print slides that have dark backgrounds.
  4. Use Print Preview before printing to see what you will get before sending the job to the printer.
  5. Read the Print Dialogue box to make sure you are using the correct printer, only printing the pages you need and are printing draft mode when possible.
  6. Only click print once.  If you don’t see your print, investigate the problem or ask for help.  We have thousands of printouts that are never retrieved!
  7. Don’t use printers as photocopiers.  The copiers in the office are much cheaper.
  8. Be careful when printing something from the internet.
  9. Be careful when printing large pdf files.  Only print what you really need.
  10. Think Before You Print.  For more information go to the Print Awareness Page.
