Printing from a Laptop

Printer Locations | Download Printer Drivers | Help

Introduction

Members of the Northwestern Community with a valid Northwestern NetID can print from their laptops to printers in seven (7) locations. To use this service your laptop must be attached to the Northwestern campus network and you must download and install the appropriate printer driver from the list below.

You will have 24 hours from the time your print job is submitted to come to the Library to pay for and release your print. Unclaimed print jobs will be automatically purged from the system.

Currently the service supports Windows XP and Windows Vista. We are working with the vendor to also provide OS X support and hope to have it available in the near future.
