Student Color Printing
Black and white printing for students is free. Color printing for students is $.06 cents per colored side printed, deducted from the declining balance on your CatCard. If you are a student printing in color for your work-study job, learn how to charge to your department rather than your declining balance.
To Print in Color:
- Make sure you have a balance available on your CatCard. If you have no declining balance, you will not be able to print in color. You can add to your declining balance at catcard.davidson.edu.
- Send your job to a printer marked PawPrint Advanced - HP or PawPrint Advanced - Canon. Find PawPrint color locations.
- Update your printer settings to choose color, using the instructions below for your system and available printer.
