Computers and Printing

Computers are located in both the regular library area, as well as in a CITES Computing Lab.
Undergraduate Library computers have internet browsers and Microsoft Office software available. Additionally, we have several IMacs with all fo this plus the iLife software and Adobe CS2 throughout the building.
The CITES Lab has this type of computer. The CITES website has more information on Hours and Locations for all campus computer labs.

All Undergraduate Library computers print to the same printers, located in front of the circulation and reference desks on the upper level.
Students can print from their own laptops to library printers using library software downloaded from https://www-s2.library.uiuc.edu/lp/docs/software.pl (Windows 2000 and XP) or https://www-s2.library.uiuc.edu/lp/docs/vista.pl (Windows Vista)
Black and White Printing is $0.10 a page, color printing costs vary based on how much color is in the document being printed. There is also a Library Printing FAQ available for questions/problems with printing.
Patrons can also set up Pre-paid Accounts.
The CITES lab uses their own printers, and color printing is not currently available there.

Pay Cash:
If a print job does not print via "pay cash" after a UGL employee has pushed the "print" button, try resending the print job from the original computer. If this can't be done, library staff will call the IT office, give them the job number next to the unprinted print job, and will try to resend the job.
Net-Id Payment:
Patrons can log back into the libprint software (they can just print any page to get back there). There will be a link next to all documents previously printed to Report a Problem and request credit for a job.
