Printing at MSU
MSU Print is the centrally supported printing solution for MSU students, faculty, staff, and departments. More than 6.5 million pages are printed each year. Read more about getting started with MSU Print.
As of September 1st, 2018 Black-and-white prints are:
- 6 cents per 8.5 x 11 page
- 8 cents per 8.5 x 11 duplex page (double sided)
- 10 cents per 11 x 17 page
Color prints are:
- 40 cents per 8.5 x 11 page
- 80 cents per 11 x 17 page
Not all printing options are available on all printers.
Double-sided printing counts as two pages. All lab computers default to double sided (duplex) print.
Print credits can be purchased by credit card, Spartan Cash, and student receivable accounts.
Sustainability:
Our Black-and-white printers use 20lb paper which is 30% post consumer recycled and the Color printers use 24lb paper.
We use Hewlett Packard printer toner with recycled content.
Computer Lab Printing
Printing is available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, in many locations, depending on computer lab building hours.
If printing from a computer in the lab or at the Main or Gast Business Libraries, your print job will come off the local printer assigned to that lab.
If using your laptop:
- Log into MSU Print with your MSU NetID credentials.
- Go to the “Web Print” section of the application.
“Web Print” is only available from the MSU campus locations and can be uploaded and released from anywhere on campus (using MS Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, JPG, and Plain Text File formats).
Individual Printing
The MSU community can send print jobs via print.msu.edu to printers across campus.
Department Printing
Departments can also request that printers be deployed in specific unit locations as part of MSU Print. Contact the MSU IT Service Desk at (517) 432-6200 or ithelp@msu.edu to request.
