Placing an Order
 
Copy Services Printing Requisition Forms are available in the Copy Service office and at all secretaries' desks. Completed forms must have all budget accounting codes (FUND/ORG/ACCOUNT). All printing specifications must also be clearly noted. Jobs will not be printed until this information is submitted. Attach the requisition form to the original documents and drop them off at Copy Services.

Turn-around times vary depending on the volume of work in the shop.

Originals MUST have all staples removed and be photocopy ready. Dog-eared, torn, bound, wrinkled copies may be refused at the discretion of Copy Service staff.

All documents MUST have copyright clearance approval before printing.
 
Picking Up Print Jobs
 
Print jobs require a pickup signature. This constitutes conclusive proof that all goods have been received and picked up are in good order and condition. Any miscounts or misprints must be noted on the form at this time. Reprints after form signed will be subject to additional printing costs.

A pink copy of the requisition form is given to you/your department as a receipt.
 
Billing
 
All billing is submitted to UNBC Accounting monthly. Any questions or concerns regarding your photocopy billing can be made by calling 960-6464.
 

 
Area/Office Copiers
 
Copiers are in place to provide convenient, quick and reliable service to UNBC faculty/staff for low-volume printing. All office area copiers on campus are managed and maintained by UNBC Copy & Publishing Services staff. All area copiers require cash cards to activate.

Local office staff are requested to monitor toner supply at their machine, are asked to change toner cartridges when required and are able to clear most paper jams. Copier Operator Manuals are located at each copier to assist you.

If you have any major concerns with faulty operation of any copier please contact Copy Service staff at 6464 or 6466. If a Copy Service staff member is unable to resolve the problem a Xerox or Canon technician will be contacted.

All documents printed by UNBC Copy & Publishing Services must be Copyright Cleared!

We are very strict when it comes to reproducing anything from a manual, textbook, or magazine articles. Some maps and colour reproductions of photographs require clearance as well.

Most class notes, reports, and exams do not require clearance as they were probably written by university faculty or staff. Please sign Authorizing Copyright Clearance line on Printing Requisition Form.

All documents not written by you MUST be cleared by the Copyright Officer located at the UNBC Bookstore (telephone: 960-6421). When preparing your Course Readings Package please be aware of this.
