FAQ's
Why does printing cost money?
Thousands of pages of abandoned prints are left in printers and recycle bins annually. MCC is committed to environmental sustainability.
What are alternatives to paying for printing?
You can save documents, library database search results, course notes, etc. to your OneDrive, USB disk drive or email them to yourself. You can then print them on your own printer, if you need to do so. The other alternative is to write citation lists and transcribe course notes.
How much does printing cost?
- Black and white, single-sided = $0.07 per page
- Color, single-sided = $0.40 per page
- Black and white, duplexed = $0.13 per page
- Color, duplexed = $0.60 per page
This does not include specialized areas where large-format printing exists, such as Visual Arts where printing costs vary and are based on size and resolution.
Do students continue to receive free print credit each quarter?
Yes. Registered students will receive 14 cents at the beginning of each quarter intended to allow printing of 2 class schedules.
When will I receive the free print credit?
Students registered for a quarter will receive the 14 cents print credit approximately one week before the date of their first class. Students who register late for classes will receive their credit within 1-2 days of registration. Only registered students receive the print credit. If you have not received your print credit by the date of your first class, contact IT Support Services at 531-622-2900.
Is there a discount for duplex (double-sided) printing?
