<p>yes! my printer broke halfway through the year, and it sucked.</p>
<p>there are printers all around ucsd though. be sure to open up a printing account on the acs website. it's really cheap. then, you can print at computer labs. also, "imprints", the copy & print centers at ucsd, offer printing services. Just us one of the open computers and press print, they'll get your printouts for you, you pay and you're good to go.</p>
<p>what about getting sharing a laser printer with the roommates/suitemates?</p>
<p>In Windows XP, I know you can network a connected printer to your computer. So you can install the drivers on your computer, and share it on the network. And if your computer isn't connected, there really can't be a way for them to use it. (Well...they could download the drivers themselves through the website...) Yeah, tough one. Best way would be to talk it out.</p>
<p>Options:
1. Get your own printer, and don't mooch other people's printer. It's a hassle to share.</p>

<li>Go to the library, get a printer account, and print at the library. Entirely do-able, and may even be more hassle-free than having your own printer, as long as you're willing to walk to a computer station (i.e. CLICS is convenient). You don't have to worry about restocking ink or paper.</li>

<p>You can't network a printer on campus, not unless you hook up your own router or something, and even then, I'm not sure you can do it. Limitations.</p>
