Networked Printers for Group Use
The Kenan-Flagler IT Department manages, provides support for, provides black toner for, and contributes money towards the purchase of networked printers used by groups/areas at UNC Kenan-Flagler. This does NOT include the Kenan Institute, SBTDC, and other similar groups due to the different funding sources used.
