Student Printing & Copying

Allowances & Pricing

Each term, students will be provided an allowance of $25 to be used for course-related printing and copying. This is not a charge to you, but merely an allowance. You will only owe money if you choose to print or copy in excess of your allowance.

Printing rates are as follows:

 

Cost Per
8 ½ x 11 Page

Any page size larger than 8 ½ x 11

Black & White

$.04

$.08

Color

$.14

$.28

 

Each time you print, you will see information related to the cost of the job you are submitting as well as your remaining balance. When your $25 allowance is exhausted, you must pay for any additional printing and copying that you would like to do. Additional balance may be added to your account via PayPal by logging into https://myprinting.fvtc.edu/user with your FVTC ID and Password and selecting "Add Credit." You may also add credit by going to any Enrollment Services office.

 

If you have a positive allowance remaining in your account at the end of the semester, it will not roll forward to the subsequent semester, nor will it be refunded to you. If you have added additional credit, it will remain in your account and continue rolling forward until it is used. Allowances may not be transferred from one student to another.

If you are concerned about the adequacy of your allowance because of the amount of printing that is required for your courses, please contact Jessica Van Dyn Hoven in Printing Services. She will work with the appropriate College personnel to research the situation and explore options.

To print, send your print job to the print queue called ReleasePrint, then log onto any printer to release the print job.  To make this release process as efficient as possible, you are encouraged to use your student ID badge as a swipe card. Student ID badges can be requested through Student Life.

To scan to email or OneDrive, log onto any printer on campus and select Scan, follow the steps on the display screen.

Faxes can be sent from any printer on campus. Log in, select Scan, and choose Outgoing Fax, follow the steps on the display screen.

Guest Printing

If you are not an active student in any given term, you will not be given a print allowance for the term. Guest printing access cards can be purchased in the Appleton campus library or the reception desk at other locations. Cards are available for purchase in $1, $5, $10 increments. Guests must pay in check or exact cash. Debit and credit cards are not accepted at this time.

To print, users will log onto college computers using the Student/Student login. When the printing prompt asks for User ID/password, the user will enter the information from their unique card. The user will enter the same credentials when releasing the print from the printer or logging in to make copies or scan.
