Copying

How to copy using the copier-scanner in 501 E. Daniel.

For Students

If you need to copy something, you should email a scan of the image to yourself and then print it from your laptop or the kiosk. 
You can also Print/Scan/Copy in the Main Library.

For iSchool Faculty and Staff

All faculty and staff should have their own Account ID (5-digit numbers) assigned by the front office.

If using the scanner bed:

  1. Open the top of the copier, place your original document on the scanner bed, and close the copier.
  2. From the home screen, select Copy. 
  3. When asked for your Account ID, input the Copier Code.
  4. Type in the number of copies you would like to make.
  5. Common settings you may wish to adjust:

  • Output Color: Auto-selects based on your original, but you can select either Black & White or Color.
  • 2-Sided Copying: You typically will not change this when making copies from the scanner bed. 
  • Paper Supply: The copier will attempt to auto-select a sheet size based on the size of your original, but you can select a particular size here. If you are using auto-select, you may get an error message saying the copier cannot select a sheet size based on your original.
    • If you would like to print onto special paper (for example, if you are printing flyers on a specific color of sheet), you should feed your sheets into Tray 5, the bottom left tray when you are facing Optimus, then select Tray 5 from Paper Supply.
  • Reduce/Enlarge: Scale your original image up or down in size.

6. After adjusting the settings you need and selecting the number of copies, select Start.
