The following department network printers can be used by all department users:

All department network printers are PostScript Level 2-capable and can be used from all department-managed computers. Duplex-capable printers can produce double-sided output with the appropriate printing options set for your print job.

Please only print color documents to the color printers. All other documents should be printed to the black and white printers.

To conserve toner and paper, please PREVIEW your document on screen first to confirm it looks correct BEFORE printing.

If you must print out a presentation on clear transparency slides for overhead projection, please only use "Laser Printer Transparency Film" stock (not the cheaper ones used for inkjets, copiers, handwriting, etc.). Otherwise, your transparency will MELT and damage the printer when it passes through the high-temperature fuser unit module inside the printer that fuses the toner particles onto the transparency. It can cost over $300.00 to replace a damaged fuser unit! Please also note that when using an overhead projector to display color transparencies, colors may not necessarily exactly match what was seen on the computer screen (they usually turn out too dark and solid).

If you are having difficulty printing, please email mathhelp@math.ucsd.edu or call x44591.
