UB: Rotated Display.

I am having fun with UB’s Dell Widescreen monitors that can rotate. Had to use 3rd party software to activate this rotation because UB disable changing display privileges by default.
UB: Computing/Printing Guide
Jan 26th
v1.0 01/26/2010
Here are some tricks that I have learnt during my years of studying in University at Buffalo.
Printing Tips
- Avoid printing during peak hours (print turnaround > 1hr)
During peak hours, consultant have tendency to mess up sorting just to keep up with the printers. - Release multiple print jobs at the same time.
Releasing multiple jobs at the same time will lower the chances of loosing printouts. - Count/check your print jobs.
Count to see if you have missing print jobs or may have held someone else’s print job. - Printing PDF documents.
Some PDF files are pain in the ass to print. I found “Print as Image” in Adobe Printing Preference helps a lot.
Printing Hints/Tricks
- You can send printout from one computing site to another computing site (e.g. Capen to Lockwood)
Hint: Adding the right printer through Internet Explorer. - You can sent printouts to one particular printer
Hint: Adding the right printer through Internet Explorer. - You can cut the printing queue by sending to another print server (e.g. iPrint Anywhere server has short queue.)
