GLT Printing

We have setup two new multifunction, b&w/color printers in GLT in the lounge areas on floors 2 and 3 on the east side of the building. Please see details below for how to add the printers, copy and scan. These printers are for UT/ME business-use only. No personal printing is allowed. Since we are charged per page, please utilize color printing and copying only when necessary.

  • 40-page per minute model
  • Configured to support 8.5 x 11 (letter) and 11 x 17 (ledger/tabloid)

  • 40-page per minute model
  • Configured to support 8.5 x 11 (letter) and 8.5 x 14 (legal)

**We have set default print options such as black and white and two-sided, but these can be changed on demand for each print job or you can set up new defaults and/or saved presets on your computer yourself or with ME IT assistance.

**We have also disabled printing via USB drives at the devices for security and to prevent unauthorized printing. You can print directly from your computer without needing to copy documents off to a USB drive. Secure printing instructions can be found here - Windows and MacOS. This will allow you to hold print jobs at the printer until you release them.

Note: If there is a need to print from a non-UT managed Windows computer where Software Center is not installed, please submit a ticket to mech-it@austin.utexas.edu.

These network scan folders are temporary storage locations and files will be cleared after 5 days. Move your file off and place in your desired local or cloud storage location. If there is a specific security or business need that requires your own network scan folder, please submit a ticket to mech-it@austin.utexas.edu for review.
