Rutgers University will continue its PrintGreen initiative this spring, working to conserve paper for both environmental and fiscal benefits.
Every January and again every July, $30 is posted to the printing account of each Rutgers student. As a student prints a document, the account is charged 4 cents per sheet of paper used if the document is printed on a black-and-white printer. Documents printed on a color printer are 25 cents per sheet.
Lab printers are set to double-sided printing by default to double the amount of printing a student will receive for the charge. Students are able to print 1,500 black-and-white sheets a year.
Students who use up the $30 before the end of the six-month allotment period will pay for additional printing using their RU Express Card. To find out more, check print usage or add funds to an RU Express Card, visit http://printing.rutgers.edu.
