Printing from a GC library computer using a GC network ID*

When you send a print job from a library computer to the printer, select "double-sided on wp5v" or "single-sided on wp5v" to send the job to a printer on the library 2nd floor.

Then, move to a print release computer near the 2nd floor rest rooms and the library printers. Login as directed to the station with your GC Network ID and select the jobs you would like to print, and click the "print" button. Your selected and "released" jobs will print at the printer assigned the single-digit number matching your release station number.

If it does not work, try again on another print release station. Additional printers are available in department labs.

Report any printer problems to IT Services using their live chat or emailing itservices@gc.cuny.edu or calling (212) 817-7300 Mon-Fri between 9am-5pm.

The web printing service requires a GC Network ID

• One-time registration is required to use the web printing service. 
• Register using your Office 365 email account (i.e., user@gradcenter.cuny.edu) at https://siteup.ocsinc.ca/site/register and select Graduate Center CUNY {GC} from the drop-down menu.
• When you are ready to send print jobs to the GC printers from your own device, visit Student Web Printing to upload files.
• Then, log into a print-release station at the library to print your documents.

For Graduate Center students, color printing is available outside of the library via the DGSC computer lab on the 5th floor, room 5487.

Guest printing costs $0.15 per page and requires a copy/print card, which can be purchased from a card vending machine near the Reference Desk. Buy the card with a $1 bill, then re-insert the card to add more value. Cards are reusable but not transferrable to other libraries.

• Printing to the guest printer:
  Visitors who are logged in to a library computer with a guest login (available at the Circulation and Reference Desks) may print to the guest printer on the 2nd floor. Report problems with the guest printer to IT Services using their live chat or emailing itservices@gc.cuny.edu or calling (212) 817-7300 Mon-Fri between 9am-5pm.
