Undergraduate students have a standard printing quota of 150 pages per month. Graduate students and faculty members have unlimited printing quota. Departmental printing resources are intended to be used only for legitimate departmental business (your research, classes, and TA duties). Printing usage is reviewed monthly to prevent any one user from printing an excessive number of pages.

Three HP LaserJet 5000 series printers are available on the first floor for standard black and white printing.

• hp121 is for general use. All machines print to this printer. It is the default for machines in 004 and 121.
• hp101 is for graduate students only. All machines print to this printer. It is the default for machines in 014, 101, 102, 106, 107, and 108.
• office is for faculty use only. Only faculty machines can print to this printer.

All machines can print to hpcolor. Faculty members have no quota restrictions, but all students have a default quota of zero pages. To use hpcolor, a faculty member must sponsor a quota request.

Posters are printed by the Support Staff. To have a poster printed, place a postscript or PDF file in /home/scratch/posters, then send a request to the Support Staff with the name of the file. Posters should be printed within 24 hours of a request. Users will be notified via email when the poster is ready to be picked up.

The plotter is an HP DesignJet 800ps. It prints posters 24 inches by 36 inches in full color. Any correctly generated postscript or PDF file should print. For LaTeX users, the following template is provided:

This tarball contains the files necessary to make posters from any template on this page. Unpack this tarball in the directory where you will build your poster (or add the files to your texmf tree, if you have one). The document class "poster" defines the paper size and fonts for all templates on this page. At the top of your LaTeX document, use "\documentclass{poster}" It is derived from the article class, so sections and subsections should behave as you expect them to.

This package defines the "Plain" template upon which the poster on display by the seminar room was built. Place it in your poster directory or in your texmf tree, and in your poster source file, say "\usepackage{plain}".

Here is the source for the poster on display. Note that to compile this you must have all files (poster.cls, size20.clo, plain.sty, plainposter.tex, graph.eps, and sources.bib) in the same directory, or have an appropriately configured texmf tree.
