I heard they are scanners for students to use at Mills. Are they free? Also how is the quality of the scan?

Thanks!

this.
I'm pretty sure it used to cost 10c/page, just like printing.

It looks like they changed that.

The one in mills is free - on 2nd floor. It's just connected to a computer (it's kind of difficult to find if you don't know what you're looking for). If someone's using the computer (and not scanning) just ask them if you can scan something. They should let you since that computer is the only one for scanning in that area.
