Student UniPrint Pay per Print System

New Student Pay per Print System

New Student printing is changing. Please use up your old print cards. We have had some feedback and are trying to keep a few old copiers and printers in place till the end of September, however its highly recommended that students move to the new system as far as possible as it is very modern and more secure and we will be offering many tools such as web printing with it once it settles in.

What's Happening

The student pay per print system is being replaced with a new up-to-date one in phases.

Why is it happening

There have been many issues with the current student printing. The major ones are unreliable equipment and slow service turnaround. ITS has had many complaints and spent a lot of time and effort trying to get improvements, however the system is obsolete and must be replaced.

When is it happening

Phase 1 is the vending card solution. This is working already. Phase 2 is the student ID solution has been rolled out as pilot. Phase 3 is getting the credit/debit card online payment system working and is completed and in pilot already. Phase 4 is web printing and will be tested and implemented in pilot in Spring 2018.

What is the impact

The impact will be to improve the situation tremendously and allow for growth of services to students in the future.

Students can use their new free ID cards for printing
Better printers and more reliable printing with good support from vendors.
Better information such as costs prior to printing
Secure printing – students will only see their own print jobs.
Simple administrator screens.
Old cards must be used up as they will not work with the new up-to-date system. As they belong to the vendor SAC cannot offer any refund.
More services as we go on in time.
The costs of printing will be 8 cents per black and white page and 50 cents for color page.
The charge is only activated once teh printer actually prints

Thank you for your cooperation as we setup this new improved service!
