Computer Lab - Printing in a Lab

If it can, a lab printer will print double-sided (duplex) by default. You can change the setting for single-side printing.

  1. If you only want to print on one side from a lab computer, select the File tab, then Print on the Blue ribbon when printing from Microsoft Word.
  2. Change "Print Both Sides" to "Print One Sided" before you print to print single sided.
  3. Click the "Print" button up top to send the document to the printer.

  4. Most labs automatically release the print as long as one's campus card account has enough funds.
