Printing in the Libraries

The Basics

• Students receive a $42.50 quota for printing each semester. When you print at UMKC Libraries, the cost is deducted from your print quota.
• When you run out of quota, add funds to your Roo Bucks account.
• Print from a library computer or use Web Print to print from any device.
• Use Web Print off campus by connecting to the campus Virtual Private Network (VPN) first.
• Check out the Student Computing Labs FAQ page for more information.
• Guest printing is not allowed at this time.
