Using the New Xerox Multifunction Devices

The new devices utilize our existing print system.  The same method is used to print to the devices directly.  If you have a balance on your student/print card it can be transferred over to the new system.  This can be done at the Chancellor Paterson Library Circulation desk, Education Library Circulation desk or the Print Shop.

Xerox devices are located in the Chancellor Paterson Library main floor, the Education Library, Bora Laskin 2nd floor lounge and the ATAC Building (3rd and 5th floors).  Scan-to-email functionality is enabled on all of the new devices (5955i and 7855i).  Scanning in colour or monochrome can be selected for all devices as well.

If you approach the device and notice that the Power or Energy Saver button is lit, you will need to press it to wake up the device before you can use it.  These devices will go to sleep during periods of inactivity.  The button is located on the far right of the panel

For the sake of security it is important to always log out when you are finished your tasks before you walk away from the device.  This is done by pressing the Log In/Out button again.  After you have logged out your username will be gone from the top right of the touch screen.  The system will automatically log you out after sixty(60) seconds of inactivity as a precautionary measure.

Copy

Select Copy you will see a screen similar to this

There will also be options to copy in colour or monochrome.  If you copy in monochrome you will only be charged $0.10 per 8.5 x 11 page.  If you Auto Select colour detection is enabled and will automatically charge colour pages at $0.40 per 8.5 x 11 page.  It is best not to leave it up to the device, manually select what you need.
There are a number of options when copying as well.  These functions are better explained in a tutorial and beyond the scope of this document.
