Printing in the LARC

• Go to Wireless Printing Locations.
• Scroll down until you see UW Tacoma BW Double Sided or Single Sided.
• Click on the link, download and install your print driver.

• (Coming soon... print from your mobile device)

The Learning and Research Commons provides access to Creative Communications' pay printing system, colloquially referred to as 'Pharos.'

By default, all Learning and Research Commons computers print to the UW Tacoma Double Sided print queue. The printers are located on the first and second floor of the Snoqualmie building.

If you want to print single-sided, simply unselect the "double sided" check box in the print dialog.

Most people know about the printer on the 1st floor but the Teaching and Learning Center also has a release station in their area, if you see a queue forming at the printer downstairs, try the printer upstairs!

To pay for these jobs you will need to add money to your Husky Card (Student ID) either by adding cash to the card at the LARC's add-value station which is located near the printer on the 1st floor, or by adding funds online with a credit card.
