Overview
In an effort to reduce costs and waste, the HTC’s will be implementing a Pay for Print solution in the open labs, where students will be able to use their student ID cards to release print jobs that they have placed into a holding queue to print. During the late Spring and Summer 2009 semesters, College Technology Services and the Fiscal office will be working together to structure Phase I of a pay for print solution for students in the open labs. Rollout for Phase I is scheduled for the beginning of the Fall 2009 semester.
Goals of the project:
To implement a system that will…
- …Help students to make better-informed decisions about what they print.
- …Decrease print waste
- …Decrease campus print budget
- …Provide detailed print monitoring and tracking

Archived Project Status:
In Late May the team met with IKON to discuss adding a pay for print solution to the current Copy services. The team learned that we already own the background components required for the IKON pay for print solution, which was purchased as part of our IKON copy services solution at the GCN campus.
During the month of May, IKON delivered price quotes for a solution - the decision to move forward with IKON as a provider was made.
During the month of May, team members and invited guests toured sister colleges to learn more about Pay for Print solution options and configurations. You can learn what some of our sister colleges are doing by clicking on the link below.
During the month of June, the system will be fully vetted by the team - delivering recommendations to faculty and administration.
