Printing
Grinnell has lots of printers in both academic labs as well as in the dorms. Printing to these printers requires two pieces of software: the PaperCut client, and the printer driver. Once you have these installed, you have to make sure the right printer is selected and the PaperCut client is running!
PaperCut Client
The PaperCut client is the program that allows you to access the college's network printers. From the Fall of 2011, the college has set up print stations where print jobs are released by a wave of your P-Card. This system is called PaperCut and has been put into place to help save paper by reducing wasteful printing. Black/white prints are currently not charged, while colour prints are charged .15 ¢ per side (.30¢ for double-sided).
Below is a link to the PaperCut page that tells you how to install it and use it!
