In Collaboration with IT Academic Technologies, University Libraries, The Law School, IT Officers and Health Sciences Library, The University of New Mexico is partnering with Wepa, a cloud-based printing service to deliver improved printing services to students on campus beginning Fall, 2018. This partnership will bring many improvements to student printing on campus, including:

• Convenient locations – The new system will allow students to send documents to the cloud from anywhere and retrieve their prints from any of the 55 print stations located in libraries, computer labs, classroom buildings, and locations across campus.
• Consistent printing prices – The new printing solution will mean consistent printing prices across campus. For many locations, these rates are lower than the current rate.
• Many ways to print – The new printing solution will allow students to send print jobs directly from a wide variety of devices and solutions, including Mac/PC printing, document uploads using a browser, mobile, email, cloud, and USB.
• Many ways to pay – The Wepa solution supports many payment methods including Lobcard, Wepa Print Cards, and credit/debit cards
• Many colors, shapes, and sizes – The solution supports black and white, color, and duplex printing in many sizes including standard letter, legal, and tabloid sizes.

This decision matches the decision that the University Libraries made in 2017 and was made in consultation with ASUNM and GPSA leadership as well as the Academic Technologies Advisory Board.

Production service will be rolled out during the week of July 23rd. The legacy printing services will continue to be available until the last piece of work is done on July 31st.
