The printer is almost guaranteed to be working, but I think it will need a
change of ink cartridges for yellow and/or cyan. Paper is provided. We're
charging, nominally, $15 for a full-colour A0 print, bearing in mind that
this is by no means top-quality printing.

To enable smooth printing, create a PDF of your document at A0 size -
doing rescaling etc. is a good way to run into odd issues.

I've been doing most of the printing work with the plotter, and I can be
around after 3pm on Wednesday or after 5pm on Thursday. Let me know by
private mail (no need to copy the list) and we can sort it out.
