Managed Print Services

In the past year, Georgetown University’s managed print program transitioned from UIS to the Auxiliary Business Services and Real Estate Department. 

During the Fall 2021 semester, we will begin an evaluation phase to better assess printing needs as the campus population and operations evolve. Our goal is to modernize and optimize print solutions across our campuses to include cloud printing, Follow Me Printing, and secure print release, among others. These enhancements will be paired with upgraded print devices to provide an optimized user experience. Stay tuned for exciting developments to the print program at Georgetown!

If your printing needs have changed and you would like to explore options (higher capacity, lower capacity, specific features, color vs black & white), or perhaps you no longer need your device, please contact Auxiliary Business Services at auxiliary@georgetown.edu. 

Please note, we are not adding any new devices to the printer fleet until we execute a new service agreement.  In the meantime, however, we are evaluating the existing devices to see if any are underutilized and can be relocated/removed from their current locations.  If we can locate a device in working order that meets the needs of the department, we’ll schedule to have it relocated.
