How To Print

The Department of Art Emerging Practices/Graphic Design Labs feature a Xerox 7835 MultiFunction Printer, ubART-Xerox7835. Stocked with high quality 8.5″ x 11″ (Letter) and 11″ x 17″ (Tabloid) paper, the device will print and copy, collate, fold and staple, and scan to email or jump drive. Users can print from lab computers or their own laptops by adding the printer at <art-cfa142.caset.buffalo.edu> and installing the appropriate Xerox driver.

User accounts will be created for every student enrolled in an EP/GD Lab course, as well as for students in ART 140 and Senior Thesis. For each course lab fee paid, a student may print up to 100 color and 100 black and white impressions (a print on a singe page side) on either size paper. If you exceed your quota and can no longer print, see Dom in CFA 139.

The printer has been purchased and is maintained with student lab fees. It should be used for Course-Related Artwork Only. Text documents and materials for other courses should be printed in the UB Public Labs, such as 2nd Floor Lockwood Library.
