PRINTING IN THE SINC SITE (COMPUTER LABS)

All students have a daily/weekly quota print quota.

• What does this mean?
• The print out sheet says I have a balance, do I owe money?
• Example of how a student can use the system
• Logging in to Print
• Printing from a workstation in a SINC Site (Computer Lab)

• Each student is given a $2.00 balance daily to print which will allow each student to print up to 40 sheets per day, or 25 double sided sheets.
• If you don't use your print quota for the day, the balance will rollover to the next day.
• On Saturday early morning and Monday early morning the system resets itself to $2.00 or 40 sheets.

The print out sheet says I have a balance, do I owe money?

NO! The technology fee you pay every semester covers your printing costs.

Below is an example of how a student can use the system in 1 week:

Day	Sheets or Balance	Printed	Remaining Sheets or Balance
System Resets
Monday	40 sheets or $2.00	5 sheets	35 sheets or $1.75
Tuesday	75 sheets or $3.75	10 sheets	65 sheets or $3.25
Wednesday	105 sheets or $5.25	35 sheets	70 sheets or $3.50
Thursday	110 sheets or $5.50	0 sheets	110 sheets or $5.50
Friday	150 sheets or $7.50	50 sheets	100 sheets $5.00
System Resets
Saturday	40 sheets or $2.00	0 sheets	40 sheets or $2.00
Sunday	80 sheets or $4.00	10 sheets	70 sheets or $3.50

• Your Net ID Username and Net ID Password
  (If you are having trouble printing, please visit the following website:

  or speak to a Student Consultant)
  
• All registered students can print.

1. Within every SINC Site, each individual computer will now have the ability to print to
   a spool queue.
2. After you press the print button, you will need to visit a Pharos Release Station
   to release (send) your print job(s) to the printer.
3. After the job has printed, it will count towards your quota.

NOTE: Jobs sent to the print queue, but not printed, will be deleted after 3 hours.

• The Main Library SINC Site rm 1460, Student Union SINC Site rm 080 and the Engineering
  SINC Site rm 106 have additional stations just for printing so people can walk-in
  just to print.
• The remaining SINC Sites only support Pharos Release Stations; therefore you need to find a vacant computer on the floor to use.
