Laser color and black & white printing is available from the public computer workstations within FLITE. The cost is 10 cents per page for black & white and 50 cents per page for color. You will need to use a debit card or your Bulldog ID card as coins are not accepted at the print stations. The Bulldog card must be first initialized in the library before any copying or printing costs can be charged to it. Have the card initialized at the check-out desk on first floor or at the periodical help desk on second floor. Once the Bulldog card is initialized, money can be added to it by inserting your card into a debit card machine and then inserting currency into the machine. Debit cards cost $1.00; plus, you will need to add money to the card in order to print (minimum $1.00). Directions for printing are below. If you have any questions, call the Reference Desk at (231) 591-3602. For technical support call (231) 591-5621.

Directions for Black & White Printing

Choose the print function in the software you are using. In Microsoft Word or Excel choose "File" then "Print." Using the printer icon bypasses a screen that allows you to select a printer. Make sure the name of the printer is: HP Laserjet 4100 PS. If it isn't, use the drop down menu to change the printer selection. Choose which pages to print and number of copies you need as you usually would, then click "OK." Enter your name and a password into the PHAROS Popup Client. Note: You will need the password to retrieve your job at the print station. Your job can be printed at one of three black & white print stations. There are two in the first floor "Info Commons Area," and one on second floor. Note: the print station in the extended study area only accepts jobs originated in the extended study area.
