Once your $10 credit is depleted, you will accrue charges monthly.

To request a refund due to a canceled job or printer jam/malfunction, go to your printing account, select "Recent Print Jobs," locate the job, enter a reason, and press "Send." Monitor your account for the status of your request (pending, refunded, or rejected). Requests must be placed before the end of the month. 

Refunds are processed on the first business day of the next month, before charges go to Student Accounts.

Known Issues

  • On macs printing from Chrome, the paper size sometimes defaults to A3 size, rather than Letter (which generates an error on the printer, because it does not contain A3 paper). WITS is currently investigating the scope of the problem; in the meantime, saving to pdf and printing from Adobe bypasses the issue.

  • If you use an Apple device to print and you get an error message that your job is being "Held for Authentication," use this walkthroughto resolve the issues. 

Additional Information 

  • For any medical or learning accommodations, contact Accessible Education Services (AES).

Printing Etiquette 

Willamette University supports sustainability. Printers are a shared resource on this campus, and it is very important that each user does their part to be courteous to fellow users and to conserve paper and toner.
