Back to Top Remember to Use Ricoh Printing

Please remember that we are no longer to use FedEx Office for printing services. The new Ricoh Centers are now up and running.

The Ricoh Document Service Centers, located at White Hall Classroom Building, Medical Center, and W.T. Young Library, are now fully operational and functioning to serve departments’ document needs. New state-of-the-art printing and finishing equipment has been installed at each location. Ricoh provides courier service to departments for pickup and delivery of materials. Extended hours are available for rush or overnight jobs as needed. All services offered by the centers are also available to employees or students for personal purchase.

Formation of the on-campus Document Service Centers is a key component of the University’s strategic efforts to better manage document output through its Managed Print Services agreement with Ricoh.

Visit http://www.uky.edu/ukricoh/ and click the icon entitled “Document Service Center” for information about the centers. The website includes a listing of available services, locations and hours of operation for each center, phone/email contact information, and file upload capability. Departments can electronically submit jobs via the website by completing the DSC Request Form for the location of their choice. The above website also provides access to the Managed Print Services and Student Printing Services components of the larger Ricoh agreement.

Procurement-related questions regarding the Document Service Centers can be directed to the Purchasing Division, ATTN: Craig Locke. Back to Top
