Some users experience excessively long print times (30 min-4 hours) when printing photos or documents with graphics/photos. This is normal behavior on most copiers (especially network ones).


When printing large quantities and especially documents with photos, be sure to utilize the district print shop. Submit your project online. If you need to submit physical documents for copying, download the attached pdf. 


Here are some best practices to minimize print times:

  • Avoid printing images at the copiers, and utilize the print shop when printing anything with graphics or images. 
  • Enable grayscale (black & white) printing. 
  • Before sending your image/document to the printer, make the file smaller so it'll send faster.
