Black & White and color reproduction

Staff is available to print or copy documents on various kinds of stocks including text and cover/index weights. Duplexing, collating, scanning, and stapling are available on many of the copiers located in satellite areas. Other services include binding, cutting, folding, paper drilling, and laminating.

Wide-Format Printing

Full color or black and white printing, up to 60” wide, is available on our Canon Pro-6000S, which produces intricately detailed full-color renderings, CAD drawings, GIS maps, photos, and other large-format output on a variety of media. 

TurnAround Times

For University requests (departments and organizations), turnaround times range from two to three work days for simple photocopying and printing to three to five work days for more detailed and high quantity jobs. External requests (students and community) range from three to five work days for simple photocopying and printing to five to seven work days for more detailed and high quantity jobs. Several factors determine the amount of time involved in completing your request. Please consult with a Print Services team member for an estimated completion time for your particular request. Turnaround times may be longer during peak times.

Please note: Printing turnaround time begins when the request is received during regular business hours (M–F, 8 a.m.–4:30 p.m.), when a proof has been approved, or when a corrected file has been submitted.
