Printing from computers:
THINK about WHAT you are going to print BEFORE you print!
1. Don't print straight from the internet; copy and paste it into Word and then print!
2. If you have a lot of graphics in your document, save an extra copy as a PDF; then print from the PDF
3. Do you want to print in COLOR or BLACK and WHITE?
4. When you hit the print button, here is what the page will look like. CHOOSE your printer:
Either choose the DHS B/W (black and white) OR
DHS MediaColor (color)
4. DO NOT choose the Fax, Document Writer, or One Note!
Helpful Websites- passwords are posted in the media center or we can give them to you.
