How does printing work at Miner Library?
Answer
You can print from one of the library computers, your laptop, or your mobile device.
Print charges: Black & White pages - 10¢ Color - 25¢
Charge is per printed page. Double-sided prints are charged as 2 pages.
You may pay for prints using one of the following methods:

To print from a library computer:
- Once you have what you want to print on the screen, select FILE>PRINT
- In the print dialog box, select either Miner BW Queue - for black & white prints, or Miner Color Queue - for color prints
