How do I print on only one side of the page (single-sided printing)?

By default, Library printers will print on both sides of the page (double-sided printing).  You can choose to override the default setting and do single-sided printing for individual print jobs.

From any library computer workstation:

  1. Select Preferences or Properties from the program’s print job screen
  2. Click the Finishing tab
  3. Un-check the box to Print on Both Sides

Please note that page counts from some software programs (e.g. Internet Explorer) are sometimes inaccurate, occasionally resulting in a $0.10 overcharge on some print jobs.

Default double-sided printing was implemented at the request of a number of environmental sustainability clubs and advocates at Queen’s.
