Cloud-based Printing (wēpa)
The MPC IT Department is proud to now offer students state-of-the-art cloud printing services on the Monterey and Marina campuses through the Wēpa Print Now platform! Wēpa provides a robust and cost-effective printing solution to students using campus computers or their own devices (BYOD).
The wēpa print solution is completely integrated with MPC's network accounts, making it easy for students to login and upload documents from anywhere, then release their print job from one of several print stations located in convenient campus locations.
Cost
Printing on campus is convenient and easy. Students can deposit money to their wēpa accounts at a wēpa print station or can pay directly at a print station*.

*There is a per transaction service fee of $0.40 added to the total cost of a print job when using a credit/debit card at the print station. This $0.40 is charged by the financial institution. Students can avoid this fee by depositing a minimum of $5 into their wepa account. There is no fee for depositing money into your wepa account when using a credit/debit card. The fee is only added when a student uses their credit/debit card as a point of sale transaction.
