Problems with the printing equipment such as reloading of paper, toner, ink, paper jams, etc., are taken care of collectively as a group, but should not be done if you don’t know how. Contact Ester Flaim the program manager or Andy Molloy. Andy may be able to walk you through the process over the phone. Equipment can be damaged if correct procedures are not followed, so please err on the side of caution and ask for help.

The default file name for scanned files is ‘scan-file’. You can rename it or accept the default.
You can change the settings by pressing ‘More Options’. You can change the output file type, resolution, or switch between color/b&w. Please do not save the changes to the existing configurations.
When you are ready to scan, push the green Start button on the printer.
After scanning is complete, retrieve the files from the G:\Students Scans\ on the network. You may need to use the timestamp of the files to determine which ones are yours.
Files are auto-deleted from the G:\Students Scans\ after 24 hours.
Workstation Computers
Six Dell Precision computers are available for use in studio. These computers are similar to the lab computers back in Syracuse in that they have all the same software. They are actually part of the same computer lab environment as those in Slocum Hall. Please use your SU NetID and NetID password to login. While logged in, you can reach the same network drives as on your laptop and print to the network printers and plotters using the pay-per-plot system. The computer specs include a Xeon multi-core cpu, 16-32gb of RAM, 1tb SSD, and 27” monitor with 2560x1440 resolution.
Software installed includes everything at this link: http://soa.syr.edu/resources/technology/computing/computer-labs/.

Logitech Meetup webconferencing system + tripod
The basic workflow for using the Meetup is:
Attach the Meetup to the tripod by clipping in the shoe.
Place tripod at end of conference table or wherever is convenient.
Plug in AC power.
Optionally plug in the extra puck mic (you may or may not need this, as the Meetup’s built in mics are pretty powerful).
Plug in USB-C cable and attach to laptop.
There is no need to install special software on the laptop—the Meetup’s camera, mic and speaker will all appear as choices in Zoom, Teams, etc. (They will need to be selected to avoid using the laptop’s built in devices.)
The remote control for the camera functions when the Meetup is plugged into power *and* a laptop. You can then use the remote to move the camera lens around and zoom in or out. Sometimes the camera moves around on its own, so you may need to periodically reposition it using the remote.
