Quota

Each student is issued a 1500 sheet quota (print credit) for the period July 1, 2009 - June 30th, 2010. Quota is non-transferable. Unused quota is not refunded or carried-over from one quota cycle to another.

Quota is measured in Sternbucks with 1 Sternbuck = 1 sheet of paper. If you print duplex, on both sides of the sheet, you can get two pages for the cost of 1 sheet. Therefore, using Duplex printing (the default setting) not only saves paper, it effectively doubles your quota.

If you run out of Sternbucks/sheets, you may purchase additional Sternbucks/sheet with your credit card at the rate of $15.00 for 100-Sternbucks/sheets or $30 for 200-Sternbucks/sheets. Unused purchased sheets will not be refunded or carried-over.

Continuing students will have their quotas refreshed on July 1. Students who graduated will be able to print until either their quota runs out or July 1 of the year they graduate. January and May graduates will not be allowed to print to Stern printers or purchase additional quota after July 1 of the year they graduate.

Students from other schools in the university who take classes at Stern will receive 150 sheets per enrolled class at Stern. Clubs accounts are issued the same 1500 sheet quota annually to accommodate club-related printing needs. Students serving in special roles, such as TA's, or taking additional course loads will not be allocated additional free print quota. Stern printers in the Palladium residence hall are a part of Stern's printing system and all sheets printed to those printers will be debited from your Stern print quota.
