Canon – ESC 2

Posted on by

Team,

As previously communicated, Canon is now the University’s preferred supplier of copiers and printers. The ESC Two copier located on the North side of the building have been transitioned from Xerox equipment to Canon today. Our DSS team and Canon have worked to ensure print queues and drivers are installed on your computers. The installation is complete and the new Canon copier is operational. Before sending a print job to the new copier/printer, please be sure to select the new printer called “ESC 2” from your list of available printers.

There are three ways to learn the functionality of the new device:

1)      E-learning training website provided by Canon, please see below instructions to access the website.

2)      A mini instruction booklet attached to the device for you to reference.

3)      Formal training from a Canon representative will be forthcoming at a later date, we will keep you posted.

Procurement Services will coordinate with Xerox the removal of the old copiers.

Thank you for your patience during this transition.
