Introduction

—  Work in progress —

The printer infrastructure provided at Atelier Gisel differs from the ETH standard setup! This means that the printers/plotters must be installed as follows, see instructions below.

As far as the provision of consumables and support is concerned, the person responsible for the location is primarily the first point of contact, see also:
