Print, Copy, and Scan
Printing, Copying, and Scanning
CSAIL provides printing services for all major operating systems. Ubuntu/Linux machines use the CUPS printing system, while macOS and Windows can print directly to CSAIL printers.
In building 32, all users must be on the CSAILPrivate wireless network or wired CSAIL Ethernet to print. In building 45, printing is available wirelessly via MIT Secure or wired Ethernet on the CSAIL subnet (mostly 6th and 7th floors).
