These printers are intended for multi-user or departmental use:

Support: These printers are fully supported by Information Technology Services and come with a 1-year warranty. It is strongly recommended that you purchase the optional 3-year warranty.

The printers all work under either Windows or Mac OS (10.0 or higher).

When buying a printer, consider the ITS choice first.  Our on-campus hardware repair staff are certified to repair the ITS recommended brands.

All replacement items, such as toner, rollers, and other maintenance parts are the financial responsibility of the owner/department.  And note that connecting cables are not included with the printer and must be bought separately.
