PRINTING

The College has two high capacity Epson Multi-Function Devices (MFD) located in the Moffatt Room and the Library. The Epson MFDs use a no-heat technology which use far less energy than traditional LaserJet devices. Also the ink is less harmful to the environment than laser toner cartridges.

(NB – Personal printer for your room – You can bring your own printer but be aware that wireless printers will only work when registered with QC-MyRoom. Wireless printers do NOT work with Eduroam. So either register for QC-MyRoom or use a USB cable to connect your printer to your computer. Better still is to use the College photocopiers in the Moffatt room and Library – it actually works out cheaper than a home inkjet printer.
