Printers

Printing, scanning, and copying requirements vary widely amongst the campus community.  Please contact the IT Division for any special requests or printing consultation. 

The IT Division recommends the use of large enterprise multi-functional copiers (MFC) to centralize departmental printing needs, reduce operational costs, and standardize support, training, and repair activities.  Please contact the IT Division for MFC device recommendations and leasing agreement reviews.  In general, Xerox and Ricoh models are recommended brands for large-volume multi-feature printing devices.

For smaller office printing needs, please refer to the following list of recommended printers.  The printing devices below should be available from various campus resellers, including the P2P portal, the Bronco Bookstore, and other vendors.

Printer Support

• For campus-recommended printer models, the IT Division will provide printer setup and connection support. Support services include connecting the printer to the network, creating a shared network printer queue, and connecting IT-managed devices to the printer queue.
  
  
• The IT Division is NOT able to provide hardware support for any printers.  If hardware support is needed for the printer, please purchase the necessary warranty and/or repair services at the time of device purchase or lease.
  
  
• Printer devices that differ from the recommended model series listed or are purchased without the explicit approval of the IT Division will not be supported by the Client Services department.  In such cases, the IT Division may only provide a "best effort" approach in supporting non-standard printing equipment.  To ensure your printer continues to operate within the campus client standard environment, please consult with the IT Division before purchasing a new printer. 
  
  
• Ink-jet or non-laser printers are non-standard devices and therefore, not supported by the IT Division.  Such devices are not typically designed for enterprise environments.  Therefore, ink-jet and non-laser printers should only be connected to computers via USB cables.  Networking cables and campus network ports are not to be used by such non-standard printing devices.
