Printing in the Library

Costs

Print jobs cost:

  • $0.07 per page for black and white
  • $0.35 per page for color

MocsPrint release stations accept MocsCards (with sufficient funds available) and Guest User cards which can be purchased for $1.00 at the card vending machine in the lobby area of the 1st floor. Users can also add money to their MocsCards at the card vending machine in the lobby area of the 1st floor:

  1. Visit GET (Manage Your UTC Mocs Card - formerly ManageMyID)
  2. Log in with UTC ID
  3. Click "Add Funds"
  4. Select "Campus Points" and enter your information

Printing from Library Computers

Printing is available from the library's PCs and library-owned wireless laptops. Black and white print jobs can be retrieved and paid for at the library's MocsPrint release stations on the Ground, 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors.

Color printing is available only on the 3rd floor. 

All printing requires a MocsCard or a Guest User card. 

Printing from Personal Laptops

If you would like to print from your personal laptop, you will need to install the library's network printers. While instructions vary per operating system, the names of the printer queues you install are identical on each laptop.

Before you install, check your computer's host name to make sure it is unique and valid, otherwise your print jobs will be difficult to identity at the MocsPrint PayStation. Also make sure you are also connected to the UTC network.

Regardless of which operating system you use, you will need to know the Printer Queue name. There are multiple options for you to choose from:
