Printing in the Library

Lib2300 on Timothy

Our workhorse is a Hewlett Packard 2300, capable of duplex printing (both sides). If your documents are not printing, check to see that the default is set to Libpr2300 on Timothy.

Problems

Weekly security updates will routinely change the default printer that your profile uses. Neither the Microsoft, nor the Send to OneNote 2007 option will print on our network.

PDF Creation

You can create a PDF of any document by choosing z-create-PDF-on-Timothy as your printer. Once the document has printed, open Windows Explorer, locate the M drive and look for the PDF pickup folder with your name on it. Copy the file to your documents on the H drive. Materials on the M drive are available for a short time and then deleted.

Scanner

A scanner is available at the Adaptive Technology workstation for small jobs.
