How many schools give out free printing limits?

<p>Hey i go to U of R and we have to pay every time we print something. I was just wondering if people could tell me what school they go to and how much of a printing limit they get and how much they have to pay after they go past the limit. Thanks! we r trying to get the college to change their policies! free printing should be included in the 48 grand a year don't u think?</p>

<p>At the student union, they give a 250 page quota for the entire semester I think. At the engineering PC lab, it's a 150 page quota (but only for EG students). At the libraries and elsewhere, it's 13 cents a page.</p>

<p>Bates, no limit. As many pages as you want, whenever you want. For free. Except they're all black and white.</p>

<p>Case Western.
500 pages/semester</p>

<p>$.05/page after that i think.</p>

<p>University of Michigan, most students get 400 B&W a semester and engineers get 4000 a semester (cut back from unlimited b/c a few people abused it) as part of their respective computing package. There are ways to get access to unlimited printing, though. If you work in the math lab or are taking a class that requires access to the math department's computers, you have unlimited printing in those labs. My gf works for the Institute for Social Research, and she also has unlimited printing at her job.</p>

<p>Embry-Riddle has free printing, including color. They include it in a $300 or $400 technology fee each semester that pays for computers and stuff.</p>

<p>People take full advantage of it, and a lot of professors have powerpoint slides for you to print out.</p>

<p>Northern Illinois University does free printing in black and white for those who live in the campus dorms. Each person is limited 50 pages, after that he/she must wait or just simply leave the computer center and reenter to print another 50. This policy is rather sweet.</p>

<p>Wake has 50 free pages a semester, 5 cents a page after that...</p>

<p>We're all given printers too, though, although you have to pay for ink/paper for those.</p>

<p>My undergrad school had unlimited printing. My grad school has a pay-by-the-page printing, except my department has its own computer lab which has unlimited printing.</p>

<p>BC...</p>

<p>Oh wait. No. They changed the policy this year to 500/semester to cut "down costs", yet they raised the tuition. Their response? "We're one of the last schools in the ACC to start charging."</p>

<p>We get free printing. They say we have a quota, but we really don't.</p>

<p>UNC- Chapel Hill 800 pages a semester then $0.05 per page thereafter</p>

<p>University of Puget Sound</p>

<p>Unlimited printing in computer labs and library. Every dorm also has a small computer lab and printer, but they aren't monitored by IT staff, so you generally have to supply your own paper.</p>

<p>300 pages approximately. </p>

<p>0.10 per page afterwards.</p>

<p>UC Berkeley
250 Pages/Semester Free (Open Computing Facility)
0.13 per page afterwards (Library)</p>

<p>uiuc,
300 pages/semester free for engineering students
$ 0.05 for the rest.</p>

<p>I can get 400 pages maximum during the year (not per quarter) through misc. services and buildings... otherwise the $0.10 is standard.</p>

<p>Rutgers- completely free printing. Limit 10 in color a day</p>

<p>Duke-we used to have free, unlimited printing until this year. Now we get a $36.00 limit, at $0.02 a page, so about 1800 free pages/semester. After that, it's $0.02 per page you print.</p>

<p>As someone said</p>

<p>UC Berkeley
250 Pages/Semester Free (Open Computing Facility) but the OCF generally sucks. The computers take way too long to log in and there are always a huge number of people.</p>

<p>The Computer Facilities have a deal where you pay $12 to get a $15 print credit. BW single sided is .06, BW double sided is .09, and color is .60</p>

<p>Comes out to about 160 BW double sided sheets. Not too bad.</p>
