Printing, Scanning & Faxing

Printing

Printing using credits via the MSU Print system is available in the Gast Business Library to patrons with an MSU NetID. We are unable to accept money for printing. The Main Library offers other payment options.
Patrons may use one of three black and white laser printers (cost: 6 cents/single-sided page or 8 cents/double-sided page) or the color laser printer (cost: 40 cents/print).
Purchase credit online at print.msu.edu.
Prints may be generated directly through MSU Print from any of over 100 of our public computer workstations. Or wirelessly from laptops, using the Webprint feature of MSU Print. Using MSU Print, Webprint, prints may also be generated from anywhere in the world, to be printed in our library.
Prints may also be generated from any of our selected resources computers, utilizing the Webprint feature, however you cannot save a file to the selected resource computers so you must first save the file you want to print to an external drive such as a thumb drive. There are also file type restrictions using Webprint. The advantage of using the selected resource computer would be that they do not require you to login and wait for the computer to configure.
Printers (black & white and color) are located in the Copy Center. There is also a black & white printer in Room 22. Prints are released using your MSU ID.
