Printing

Printer rooms are strategically located throughout the campus.  All lab stations can print to a printer room.

To print, you will need:

• A current computer lab login ID
• A Langara College Cash Card, which you can purchase from the Library or from the Cash Card vending machine located near the Student Cafeteria in the "A" Building

Cash Cards can be purchased or refilled in denominations of $1, $2, $5, $10 or $20 with an initial $1 charge for the card itself. The cards can also be used with photocopiers throughout the Campus.

Printing F.A.Q.

Are there any printers on campus that handle transparencies?

Visit Instructional Media Services (IMS) in room A265.

An extra blank page came out at the end of my print job. How can I stop this from happening?

Remove all the blank lines at the end of your document. You can use "Print Preview" to check for blank pages.

Only the first few pages of my document came out. What's wrong?

1. Check your Cash Card: it could have run out of money. You can refill your Cash Card in the Library or at the Cash Card machine located near the Student Cafeteria in the "A" Building.
2. Did you eject your cash card? If you did so while the printer was printing, your job would have been cancelled.
3. The printer could be out of paper. If so, leave your Cash Card in the reader (because ejecting the Cash Card will cancel the job). Call local 2233 or ask a lab aide to refill the printer.
