Printer fleet renewal takes place July and August
Posted on Tuesday, July 2nd, 2024
During the Spring 2024 Term, the Print Services Team, alongside our ITS Department, and our new printer fleet vendor, Ricoh, will collaborate to replace Konica Minolta and Lexmark printers with new Ricoh devices at each of our Algonquin College Campus locations.
This new Ricoh printer fleet will include a mix of models for colour and black printing, multi-function and single function printing, scan to email, copying, standard letter and legal-size paper, tabloid paper, and in select locations, stapling and 3-hole punching.
Demand for on-campus printing remains over 60% lower than it was pre-pandemic, and as a result, the total number and type of fleet printers on Campus is being aligned with the current and projected campus printer fleet volumes. This means that not all printers will be replaced during this process. In areas where printers are being removed and not replaced, details on where to find the next-closest printer will be posted, which are often only a short distance away on the same floor in the same building. Departments that will have printers removed will be contacted directly by the Print Services team to discuss potential impacts.
The removal of the old, and installation of our new, printers will take place in July and August during the Spring 2024 term.
