Printing - Common BalanceClare's Public Workstation Facility (PWF) printers are part of the Common Balance scheme run by the University. The scheme is based upon pre-payment for printing charges. You can use your printing credit to pay for printing not just in Clare, but also in University Departments that have adopted the common balance scheme. Clare joined the scheme in Lent 2008, see here for other members of the scheme. Before you can print, you must preypay a minimum of £4 in cash or £5 by Credit or Debit card into your printing account. All ways to pay are explained here.
Printing - ChargesClare charges are 4p per A4 side for monochrome and 20p per A4 side for colour. You may find that other Colleges and Departments charge differently. All of Clare's PWF printers default to double sided (duplex) printing to save paper.
Printing - Changing to Colour and Altering Duplex SettingsDouble sided and black printing are selected by default. If the printer is capable of printing colour, you need to choose the colour printer from the printer list. See below for an example of the typical printer naming convention:
To change the duplex setting back to single-sided, you must change the properties of the printer on your computer. This is done by selecting File/Print and changing the properties manually. Further details of how to do this can be found below:
Printing - From your RoomAs well as printing from the PWF rooms, all College printers can be accessed via the iPrint facility.
