Duplexing – Printing on both sides

Duplexing your print job saves paper by printing on both sides of the sheet. The default for printing from your Mac is to print on both sides.

Cost

Black/white printing uses Eprint funds. The standard Fuqua printing fee is $0.04 per printed page. Fuqua has provide you with a $80 quota per 6 month period. You are allocated your first $80 on January 1st and your second on July 1st.  Any extra funds in your Fuqua quota do not roll over.

Color Printing

Color printing is not free. The Ricoh printer in the Fox Center will allow you to copy, print, and scan in color. On this machine it costs $0.15 per page for color prints, $0.06 per page for black & white prints, and $0.02 to scan to email. These costs are charged to your DukeCard FLEX account. You must have a current available balance on your FLEX account to cover the charges. When printing to the color printer you will select the ePrint_Color_Fuqua print queue and proceed to print like normal.

Please keep these guidelines in mind when using ePrint

  • Do not use printers as copiers. If you need multiple copies of a document, photocopy it
  • Recycle unwanted paper. There should be recycling bins by most printers
  • Send each print job only once. ePrint Reprint (see below) gives you the opportunity to retrieve an older job from the print queue again
  • Save paper (and money) by printing on both sides of every sheet
  • Monitor your ePrint quota throughout the year

Reprinting on ePrint

The ePrint Distributed Printing System allows you to print a job again without running back to your computer. After you retrieve your job at a print station, the job goes back into the print queue for 15 minutes. If you need to reprint the job within that timeframe, just swipe your DukeCard at any station and choose the job out of the list of available jobs in your print queue.
