Perhaps the biggest change to come from your input is the recent implementation of a new printing system.<\/p>\n<p>We are proud to introduce <a href=\"http:\/\/campusprint.simmons.edu\">Campus Print<\/a>, a flexible and user-friendly way to print, copy, and scan your documents. It provides a user interface that allows you to upload your print job from anywhere and then print it at any available printer on campus. We want to put you in control of the queue so you can print your documents when and where you want.<\/p>\n<p>While Campus Print represents a major upgrade, we&#8217;re also making additional changes to improve printing at Simmons. For example, the student print quota has been increased from 400 to 500 black and white pages. We\u2019ve also replaced aging printers in common areas and departmental offices with new printer\/scanner\/copier devices that allow you to print and copy as well as scan to your Simmons email for free.<\/p>\n<p>Simmons Technology also understands the importance of the environmental impact of our printing. Campus Print allows you to monitor the quantity and impact of your printing and all jobs default to double-sided printing in order to extend your quota and reduce the amount of paper used at Simmons.\u00a0Since October 5th, more than\u00a0<strong>109,000<\/strong>\u00a0pages have been printed. Of these pages, 86% have been double-sided, saving more than\u00a0<strong>47,000<\/strong>\u00a0sheets of paper!<\/p>\n<p>As with any new project, getting feedback from our customers is vital to improving and optimizing Campus Print. Your usage of the system will help us to make adjustments to its functionality, install new printers where you need them most, and address any problems as they arise. For example, we are currently addressing an issue with large, graphics-intensive print jobs which are slowing down the queue. We are working with our vendor to address this and we will potentially test and install new equipment in order to resolve this problem as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Already, though, we have received some great feedback from our community and we&#8217;re listening to what you have to say. \u201cThis single new \u2018scan to email\u2019 feature saved me 5 to 6 hours this week alone. NO JOKE &#8211;\u00a0I had to scan 36 sets of lecture notes and also an entire ~500 page Tenure Dossier this week,\u201d said Professor Richard Gurney, Chemistry Department Chair.\u00a0Student Chelsey Blair shared her thoughts on Twitter, saying, \u201cWhoa \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/SimmonsCollege\">@SimmonsCollege<\/a>\u00a0Campus Print is magical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about Campus Print and how it works, <a href=\"http:\/\/servicedesk.simmons.edu\/campusprint\">click here<\/a>.
