Papercut is horrendous. Clunky, slow, frustrating. Why can’t we choose a printer, how many copies and upload a document on the same page? Why does it take forever to submit? I know the size of the file makes a huge difference, but even reasonable ones often take a long time. So many students interact with this website. Investing time and money in a new, more streamlined, more reliable website would make a big difference to me and I don’t even print very often.

Maybe professors in the Social Sciences/Humanities Dept. should reconsider their syllabi and NOT assign 20-30 page articles due every class. And no, reading from a laptop screen does not work for everyone, especially since PDF doesn’t allow highlighting.

In the golden age before computers, college students had to photocopy reserve articles (page by page) and pay for each page. You had to come to the library during open hours to do this (and sometimes wait until the person before you was done.) It’s part of the cost of college and you get a bunch of free copies to boot!

I suggest you recommend that professors print reading in course packs to be purchased with textbooks at the beginning of semester.

The college just doesn’t want to have to take money from other budget areas to pay for printing. I agree with them.

Don’t undercut the average printing amount by 300 pages! Also stop referring to it as comprehensive fee if you are going to reduce services and make us pay for things covered by the fee.

The printing quota is ridiculous. Making students pay a penny more than their tuition, however they may pay it, is disrespectful.

Instead of charging for printing, the LIS should introduce late fees for every day a book or a CD is overdue. Apart from generating money, it will teach the students responsibility. It is very frustrating when you need the book, but someone can’t return it on time.

Everyone should stop printing so much. The end.

If the printing quota thing is going to happen, there needs to be a way to keep track of how many pages I’ve printed. Right now I have no idea…so maybe an email notification or something, so we know how close we’re getting to our quota.

All non-walkup computers are located far from printers. Make 1 computer a release station, and open the other computer up — it’s impossible to get to a computer that you can print from, and we DON’T NEED 2 release stations per floor!

Revise printing system. How can a student know what printer to send the “job” to, when half of the printers are broken? How can a student avoid using 3 computers to print one page from his/her laptop?
