Printers at the Health Sciences Library

Printers are located on the second floor (main level) of the library.  Printing and copying in the library is managed by University Printing and Copying Services (PCS).

Printing Charges

8.5” x 11” B&W prints or copies cost $0.08/page, 8.5” x 11” Color copies cost $0.60/page.

NOTE:Printing defaults to color and can be changed at the preview of your print job. 

Paying for Printing

Funds may be placed on your UVA ID for printing through Cavalier Advantage. For information on how to set up your account or general questions please visit the Cavalier Advantage FAQ page. You can add cash to your UVA ID at the Cavalier advantage machine in the HSL lobby or on the Cavalier Advantage website ($27 minimum online deposit). Cavalier Advantage funds can also be used at UVA Health cafeterias and at the UVA Bookstore.

With the PaperCut system, you can no longer pay for someone else's print job because the ID card and the UVA login are tied together. To pay to print someone else's document, you will need to send it to HoosPrint yourself.
