IET Computer Room Printing Policies
Black and White Printing Rate
In order to encourage responsible printing, reduce paper waste, and control costs, the campus has established a printing rate for all printing. The price for black-and-white printing is 11 cents per sheet regardless if the printing is single-sided or double-sided. However, IET will waive printing charges for clients who print only a few sheets per quarter since it is not cost effective to bill such small amounts.
Color Printing Rate
Color printing is available in the open access rooms:
- IET Media Lab (78 Hutchison)
- 102 Wellman
- 91 Shields
- 78 Hutchison
- 15 Olson
- 2214 TLC
and in the computer classrooms:
- 2102 SCC
- 2103 SCC
Color printing is a cost of $1.00 per page and is priced per side, meaning a two-sided color printout costs $2. Color printing is billed on a separate account from regular black and white printing.

Printing Rules:
Printing in the computer room is governed by several rules listed below:
- Test printing is highly discouraged. Use Print Preview.
- Only the Computer Room Consultant is allowed to add or replace paper. No user supplied paper is allowed.
- Take only your own printouts
- If you have many pending print jobs the queue may move some to the end so other users' print jobs are not overly delayed.
- The Computer Room Consultant has authority to cancel any large (more than 20 pages) or time consuming print jobs.
