Network Printing Policy

From ITS Wiki

Network printing is available using shared printers located in the academic and residential labs. Students are allocated $33.00/year ($16.50 for Fall and $16.50 for Centre/Spring terms) – the equivalent of 550 black and white printed pages for the entire academic year. Students may supplement their initial allocation by depositing funds for additional printing.


The College has expanded its corporate agreement with IKON, and IKON will provide the service and support available to all public printers. The agreement with IKON will enable the College to have a print/copy center on campus. This center will have color capabilities and will allow students, faculty and staff to have print and copy jobs produced there.


Printing costs are on a per page basis. Individuals who use the convenience printers in labs will be required to swipe their ID card to release the print job using the Pharos System. The system will then debit the individual's or department's account accordingly. Print jobs that are sent to the print/copy center will result in a modest per page savings.


All questions regarding printing charges and the use of the Document Services Center should be directed to Ann King, IKON Site Supervisor at Ext. 5472 or kinga@centre.edu.


Students may also connect a personal printer directly to their own computers. Printing to these devices is not monitored, and the student incurs no additional cost beyond their personal printing supplies.
