Print in the UCF Libraries

Sections

Everything printed from public PCs is sent to a network that you can access at print stations on the 2nd and 3rd floors. There are three black and white print stations and one color print station.

Printing cost 10¢ per sheet. Your UCF ID is used to pay for prints with money stored on its strip. There are Cash to Card machines on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the Libraries. Insert your UCF ID then insert cash to add to the balance on your ID.

As of Fall 2010 the "chip" on UCF IDs will no longer be used. UCF Libraries Copy Services can help transfer money form your ID's chip to its strip.
