How can I print single-sided? The computer lab printers default to double-sided printing.

Answer

The following answer is for Purdue Fort Wayne computer labs ONLY and does not apply to personal computers off campus.

 

When printing to the computer lab on PCs, different programs will show different settings options when you go to print. For example:

In Microsoft Office products like Word and PowerPoint, the print screen shows a Settings section which lets you choose between Print One Sided or Print On Both Sides.

In Google Chrome print screens, expand the More settings section and scroll down to select or deselect Two-sided printing.
