Printing Policies

1.  Printing will be provided ONLY to UNT students as it relates to their coursework. Internet printing counts only as course work if the Lab Manager is made aware of the nature of the course from which the print job has been assigned. Students are responsible for knowing how many pages an Internet document contains BEFORE the print job is executed.
2. There is a page limit per print job. Printing should be limited to draft quality for document revisions. Multiple copies of the same print job are not allowed. Print jobs are considered the same if most of the original printed page is intact. If caught abusing this policy, you will not be allowed to have but one copy.  
3. Large print jobs (i.e. thesis or dissertation) must be cleared with the Lab Manager and must be limited to one final copy.  Lab Managers will document printing policy abusers and share that information with other Lab Managers.  Large print jobs should be printed during off-peak hours, evenings, or weekends. 
4. Only work which falls under the university guidelines for meeting the degree requirements for all courses taken may be printed in General Access Computer Labs.
5. Students will be allowed to make one printout per document on the laser printer.
6. Lab Managers have the authority to restrict printing and/or lab access from any user who abuses printing policies.
7.  Lab Managers have the authority to grant special printing requests.
8.  Willis Computer Lab is not responsible for unclaimed papers. If papers are left in the printout box for over an hour the Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) will put them in the recycling bin
9.  Material that is not course related may be confiscated. If this is not the case, a homework assignment, course book, or related syllabus may be presented and your copies released. Excessive printing may result in future increases in student fees.
10. All documents will be printed duplexed (on both sides) by default. This can be changed if necessary.

* Class notes, course instructions, and Web-based course materials should not be printed in the labs. These materials should be printed by your instructor using departmental resources and handed out in class.
* All WebCT course materials must be printed duplex (double-sided).
* All WebCT Power point slides must be printed at least 3 slides per page - lab personnel can assist in setting this up.
