Multifunction machines in the Library offer both photocopying and printing capability.

There are machines on every floor in the building. In addition to black and white machines there are also color machines in the 24-Hour Room, the Reference Online Center, the Lower Level and in the Current Periodicals Area. There are additional machines in the Student Computing facility on the Lower Level.

All of the machines have two sided copying/printing capability.

The cost for a photocopy/print is $.10 per page for black and white and $.25 per page for color. The cost of two sided copies is $.20 for two sides black and white and $.50 for two sides color.

Payment is by Ram Account or by purchasing a guest card. Kiosks for purchasing guest cards and for adding to a Ram account are located in the lobby near the main entrance.

Print jobs sent from any computer in the Library may be printed out at any machine in the building and in any Student Computing Facility on campus.

When sending a print job, you will be prompted to specify whether you want black and white or color. Your print job will then go to the appropriate network of machines (black and white or color). At the color machines, the print will be made on the basis of what appears on the page. If there is color on the page, the machine will print color and charge $.25. If the page is completely black and white, the machine will print the page in black and white and charge $.10. The black and white machines will print only in black and white and charge $.10

The machines can accept output from a wireless computer. For instructions on this service or for more information on the copying/printing system, go to the URI Help Desk’s Pay for Printing Page.

If you experience problems with using the machines, ask for assistance at the Circulation or Reference Desks. They will be happy to help you.
