Print quota

What is my print quota?

Due to abuses of the CSSE print system, it has been significantly tightened. The general rule now is 5 pages per unit per week. This change was made because students were consistantly printing out non-CSSE related material.

How can I check my print quota?

When is my print quota reset?

Your print quota is reset on the first of the month, but the change may not show up until you try to print something that month. ie) If you look at your print quota on the 4th of a new month and haven't printed anything that month, you will still see the quota from last month.

I haven't printed anything for three months, but I only have n pages?

Correct. The quota is non cumulative. Any unused quota is lost and is not rolled over to the following period.

I have run out of quota and need to print something urgently

Sorry, there is usually nothing we can do about it. If you urgently need to print something, then we suggest talking to the unit coordinator or the unit tutor.

I want to add pages to my quota. How do I do that?

Sorry, you are not generally able to do this. The school is not in a position to modify quotas on a per student basis. In exceptional circumstances it may be possible to increase quotas depending on the requirements of units and or projects. If you have special printing needs for your course and project work you will need to discuss this with the unit coordinator, or perhaps with the unit tutor.
