What is the Uniprint Program?

 

At many sites throughout campus, students, faculty, staff, and visitors have access to clusters of personal computers, laser printers and (at some sites) copiers. These locations provide laser printing at a per/page rate, and are usually staffed by computing assistants who provide help and technical support for the equipment. The sites are heavily used and available over a wide range of hours.

Comparison of Service Options

All on-line print account management functions require you have a PrintID. For most users, this is the same as a NetID and uses the same password. Visitors are required to set up a PrintID.

UnipriNT

Using an online debit system called UnipriNT for laser printing, users are offered payment options including cash, bursar charging, and credit card (VISA & Mastercard). Each printing site is equipped with UnipriNT print stations for both printing and copying.

Pricing and refunds

Laser printing and copying at these sites costs $0.07 per page. This price help recover the cost of equipment, supplies, maintenance and staffing. Computing assistants can help in the event a refund is necessary.

If there's a problem...

Computing assistants can help with some on-site problems. Alternatively, the CA can use a pager to notify the staff member responsible for hardware, UnipriNT, or Vendacard problems. In addition, the project supervisor is notified by e-mail as a follow-up to any problems.
