The need to print, duplicate and email
documents is an inescapable part of
academic life. In Montreal, Quebec,
McGill University’s uPrint System and
standardized multifunction printers let
students, faculty and administrators
spend more time on learning and research
rather than looking for change refilling
copy cards or struggling with chargeback
logs or maintaining 600 different types
of devices.
What does undergrad Sabina Roan like best about uPrint?
“
It’s so convenient. You can print from anywhere to anywhere.
So if I have an assignment due in the Bronfman Building, but
I’m in Red Path [Hall], I can just press ‘Print’ and pick it up
four hours later in Bronfman. It’s really cool.”
“
And also you know that no one else is going to be looking
[
at your output] because it only comes up when you scan your
ID card.”
In contrast, Daniel Feucher, the manager of campus printing,
enjoys the visibility uPrint gives him into usage, maintenance
and supplies. “Because we have a lot of reporting now, we
know what’s going on. And we know where to put our effort…
For us, it’s absolutely great and makes our life easier.”
Located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, McGill University with 170 facilities is home to more than 45,000 students and faculty.
