Printing, Copying, and Faxing
Printouts in the Information Commons
- Printouts cost $0.06 per page.
- Each enrolled student begins each semester with a 35 page “free laser balance” in a campus-wide database. A valid USU ID card is required to obtain the free prints and to pay for subsequent printing.
- Printers are located at the Information desks; pick up print-outs there and present a USU ID card to pay for them. Only the USU ID may be used to pay for printouts from most workstations in the Information Commons and the computer lab.
- Under no circumstances will the Information Commons staff accept any other form of payment besides the USU ID Page charges cannot be made to departmental or other university funds. Cash cannot be accepted. Unused portions of the free allotment are not credited to the user, not carried forward to subsequent semesters, and are not transferable.
Printouts from public access workstations
- Ten computers on the first floor, located south of the entrance, are available for use by the public. Printouts from these computers go to the Book Check Out Circulation/ desk and cost $.10 per page, which may be paid with a USU ID, cash, or check.
