Printing

How to Print

To print at the Library you will need to be logged on to a library computer using your Champlain student ID number and your password for the Champlain wifi or Moodle.

There are several express printing computers set up near the Printer. Priority is given to students who only need to print something quickly. These are not the computers to use if you need to write a paper or do some serious editing of your work.

Note : Please remember to log off or restart the computer, so that others don't use up your printing credits by mistake.

 

Printing Credits

The PaperCut MF software manages all the printouts. You will need to have enough printing credits to pay for your printouts.

In the Fall semester, all student accounts are credited with 100 printing credits for the academic year. This means that in the Winter semester, only the new students receive printing credits. To print a single black & white page on one side requires 1 printing credit, which is debited directly from your account credit. You need 10 printing credits per page side for colour printouts.

 

You can check your printing credit balance in several ways:

  • Login to Omnivox and click Printing credits link
  • Open PaperCut MF Client (On campus computers only)
  • Bring your student ID card to the Loans Desk in the Library and Ask Us for your balance.
