The MSU Underground. Student Centre basement... walk past la piazza (towards north quad) and go down the stairs (all the way down, around to your right) and it's the first thing you see.

Best printing prices by a long shot.

Do we just bring our stuff on a USB and they can print it? How does it work?

Yeah, you can use a USB. You print just like at home... there's instructions posted around, and you can always ask an employee for help.

Just make sure you're careful, because you pay for everything you print. Print first, pay after.

Price list for the MSU Underground.

They can do some nice stuff. Last year for a 20 page group paper type thing we got it bound there for cheap and it looked very nice.

No, I don't think so.

Do you frequently get cartridges refilled?

I had a bad experience the first time I tried and never did it again. It was shitty and a waste of money.

There's an Island Inkjet in Westdale though.

You get a money back guarantee if it doesn't work.

Yeah I probably should have brought it back and got my money back. I guess I just didn't think about it or forgot and just bought a new cartridge.

They did in 2008-2009, but not on-site.
