Great! How do I use it?

In order to print something on the plotter you need to contact one of the IT support people:
John Harris
Branden McKagen
Matt Stith


They will setup a time to get the job printed out and help you with formatting to insure you have a quality project printed.

How much does this cost?

We are basically trying to recover our cost of the consumables for printing. Currently we are estimating $2.00/sq.ft. Thus a typical a typical poster size print of 36"x48" would be about $30. For photo printing, we are charging $3.00/sq.ft. The cost of printing must be charged to an overhead account, this tends to limit printing to faculty use only. A faculty member may pay for student's prints if they so choose.
