JumboCash
JumboCash, run by Dining Services on the Medford Campus, is the easy, cashless way to pay for printing on campus. You pay for printing with JumboCash simply by using your Tufts ID, just like a bank debit card. All full-time students receive a $10 JumboPrint stipend each year that can be used only for printing. To add additional money to your ID, you can use the JumboCash cash kiosk located on the 4th floor of the Library near the printers, or via credit card using the JumboCash website.
Tufts Medical Center staff, or guests who do not have a Tufts ID, may purchase a JumboCash card for $1 cash at the JumboCash kiosk on 4th floor of the Medical Education Building. Once the card is purchased, additional money can be added at the kiosk or via credit card using the JumboCash website.
The JumboCash kiosk accepts only $1, $5, $10, and $20 bills. Any problems should be reported to the Library Service Desk.
JumboCash can also be used for purchases at the Food4Thought café. For the full list of locations that access JumboCash, please visit the Locations page. For additional information or to report an issue with your account, please call the JumboCash office at 617-627-3566 between 9:00am-4:30pm Monday-Friday or visit the Jumbocash website.
Printing
The best way to print while on the Tufts campus is through JumboPrint (jumboprint.tufts.edu). JumboPrint allows you to print from your laptop, smartphone, or any WiFi enabled device. Log on to JumboPrint with your Tufts username and password or your guest card number and upload your print job. On JumboPrint, you can also check the status of a print job; change the attributes of your print job (e.g. single- v. double-sided); reprint all or some of your print job; and more. For the most up-to-date information regarding JumboPrint, please visit the JumboPrint information page .
Printing is available on-campus either through a personal device or the public access computers located on the 4th and 5th floors. All print jobs, whether black & white or color, are sent to self-service print stations and can be retrieved on either the 4th or 5th floors no matter from which floor the job was sent. Simply go to the small monitor located near a JumboPrint location, swipe your Tufts University ID or JumboCash card into the card reader, and select which job(s) to release.
For assistance with printing please ask either service desk on the 4th or 5th floor of the Medical Education Building. Any problems with printers should be reported to the Library Service Desk located on the 4th floor.

Black & white single-sided printing: $.10/page

Copying
The library does not have copy machines. Users may use the scanners found on the 5th floor to copy material electronically then send it to a printer. Please refer to the Scanning section below.
Scanning
Self-service scanners are available on the 5th floor near the public computing area. The scanners are free of charge to use. You can send a scan to your email or save it on your own flash drive. Scanning instructions are posted at each scanning station. If you should need further assistance on how to operate the scanners, please ask a staff member at the 5th floor Tufts Technology Services Walk-Up Support Desk.
Users are responsible for compliance with all applicable copyright laws, Tufts Information Stewardship Policy, and supporting information policies regarding printing, copying, and scanning.
