My dad is insistent on getting me a printer but i don't particularly think it's necessary as there is the library.... is it worth bringing a printer though? (i'm studying accounting and finance, if that makes a difference)
If your close to the library and organised I think you'd managed, if you're the kind of person who is still working on something the night before then taking one could be a good idea you never know what the printing queue in the library could be on deadline day.
it does come in handy for all sorts of things you might want to print such as tickets for events or coaches etc too or printing lecture notes last minutes, but i have not used mine a great deal. I took it and i'm pleased i did but i would not have bought one specially. A lot of my work is submitted digitally and its easy enough to find a printer on campus for those pieces that werent.
