PaperCut: Printing Responsibly at Lehigh

PaperCut is Lehigh's printing management system. Each August, all Lehigh users - faculty, staff, and students - are given a public site print allowance of 75 points for the year, or 1500 pages.

From reviewing student use of printers, LTS selected this quota becaue it meets the printing needs of the vast majority of Lehigh students. The printing allowance also helps to make a dramatic difference in reducing paper waste while at the same time contributing to Lehigh's efforts to foster a sustainable campus.
