Print Management Guide - Print Quota Example
All students and faculty receive a printing quota on
public network printers located across your campuses.
Weekly quotas cycle on Sunday morning between midnight and 2:00
a.m. Quota is measured per sheet of paper printed, not per printed
side. If students run out of quota, Printing Dollars are available
for purchase.
The cost for B&W is $0.10 per page. The cost for color printing is $0.50 per page.

Printing Dollars
Printing Dollars are used when students need to print but have exceeded their allotted quota, need to print in color, or are not eligible for a print quota. A Printing Dollar is a credit towards printing, at a rate of 10 black-and-white pages or 2 color page per Dollar. Printing Dollars are "durable" - they carry over from week to month for as long as student's account remains valid. The Printing Dollars can be purchased at your Support Center.
Checking Print Quota Balances and Printing Activity
There are two ways to check student's current print quota balances.
Online: Check print quota balance online, and review a detailed
history of printing activity.
Workstation: Check print quota balance using the local print management
software installed on each workstation.
The print management software PrintLimit Print Tracking can keep track of account quotas (number of pages allocated to users) or balance. When user quotas are exceeded, jobs are paused or automatically canceled.
