The way the Epsilon Print Service works...The Epsilon Printer will be operated in a "Print Service" manner. Students will submit files on a print station in room 002 and they will be printed by Bergen hall staff and then be ready for pickup at one time each day on weekdays: 5:30pm
Two types of paper surfaces will be available: Kodak Lustre and Glossy. Monday-Wednesday will be Lustre print days. Thursday-Friday will be Glossy print days.
A $30 usage fee must be paid to use this station. This entitles you to 25 feet of 30 inch paper per quarter. (25 feet equals about 75 - 8x10s or 50 - 11x14s or 13 - 16x20s, 11 - 20x24s, 7 - 30x40s) This fee may be paid more than once, if the student uses up their original 25 foot allotment. You can pay this fee in a few different ways:
- Pay it online at your MySCAD space.
- It's under the my info tab
- go to "My Bursar Account" on the right side.
- go to "make online payment."
- Select the current term. Example "Winter 2009"
