Student Printing

 

Library and Labs Printing Procedures


All full time undergraduate students are provided with an initial $25 balance (500 black and white prints) per semester. Part time students and graduate students are not eligible for this allocation as they do not pay a comprehensive fee. 

All balances will be wiped on 5/13/12, whether it is the user’s pay-as-you-go money or the automatic $25.   

All printing is pay-as-you-go in the summer.

**It is important to read the following carefully to fully understand
the process and AVOID INTERRUPTIONS IN YOUR ABILITY TO PRINT.**


In order to print, Sage students and staff MUST HAVE A SAGE ID THAT HAS BEEN ENCODED, and printing funds must be available in an account linked to this ID.

IS MY ID ENCODED?

Your ID must be encoded to access the system to add funds to your printing account. If you currently use your ID to access meal plan funds or you are a new Freshman or Transfer Student, your ID IS encoded. If you are none of the above or you aren’t sure if your card is encoded, stop by one of these locations for encoding.
