These state-of-the-art photocopiers are networked to campus, providing an ultra sharp 600 dots-per-inch (dpi) resolution for black and white copies and 1200 dpi for color copies. Files for photocopying can be sent directly to our printers from your office computers using \\white\dt6155 for the black and white copiers and \\white\PrintSvcsColor for the color copier. Before sending the copies, make sure that printing funds have been approved and signed by your department head and that you have submitted a Print Services work request with the exact file name of the document placed in the "job title" section of the request.
