A brief description of how printing is limited:
There is a cost for all printing at libraries and computer labs. Printing at these facilities is managed through a program named "Net-Print" which allows students, faculty, and staff to create an account, make payments in advance or, for students, be charged monthly on one's University Bursar bill. Costs vary depending on location, paper size and color choice (black and white or color print). In addition to printers photocopy machines are located in libraries. There is no charge for scanning a document to a flash-drive, or sending a scan of a document to an email account. All printed photocopies incur a cost paid by cash, or with advance purchase of a copy card. Costs vary depending on location, paper size and color choice (black and white or color copy).
