Print, Copy, Scan & Fax

A self-service station is available at all three library locations—the Main Library’s station is located by public computers on the third floor. Have a question? Ask us now or at any service desk.

How it works: Services are free & have daily limits

To keep services free for everyone, daily limits are set to:

  • Anyone with a library card registered with the Oak Park Public Library: 25 pages
  • Everyone else: 10 pages (a one-time guest pass can be issued with a valid ID at any service desk)

More to note:

  • There is no option to pay for additional pages.
  • Jobs exceeding the printing limit will not be printed (print jobs must be 25 pages or fewer, regardless of whether they are set to print single- or double-sided).

Print

From inside the library using a library public computer

Anyone with a library card registered with the Oak Park Public Library can use a library computer and print from inside the Main Library or Maze and Dole branches. Learn more about using computers at the library.

From anywhere using a printing portal & your own device

Anyone with a library card registered with the Oak Park Public Library can submit a print request from their own device.

  • Visit the printing portal: https://oppl.eprintitsaas.com/public/upload
  • Enter your library card number and PIN when prompted.
  • Confirm the library location where you will pick up your print job.
  • To release your print job, enter your library card number at the print release station.

Retrieve your remote print job the same day

  • Visit the library where you sent your print job on the same day, during that building’s open hours.
  • Sign in to the station with the library card number or guest pass you used to submit your print job.

To note:

  • If you experience any problems at the print station in the library, especially if you are printing at the Oak Park Public Library for the first time, please ask a library staff member for help.
  • If you don’t retrieve your print job on the same day, it will be cleared from the system overnight. You will need to resubmit your print job on a day when you can pick it up.
