Unfortunately, the green printer disappeared in 2012 and is no longer available.
Thanks to Ted's efforts, we now have a GREEN printer located near the exit door on the way to the reception area on LB 8. This printer is stocked with paper that has already been used on one side e.g. One Sided Paper. The idea is to use the blank side for your printing and reduce the total number of new sheets used for printing in the deparment.
Please see One Sided Paper Project and review energy costs of paper consumption for more details.
Happy Green Printing!
Adding paper
When adding more paper, please remember to put the blank side face down in the paper trays.
