AUC Print Shop and Copy Center
Printing Services
The general purpose of the printing and copying services unit is to provide quality, timely, and efficient printing and copying services to the AUC community in order to best support its academic programs and administrative services. All print and copy jobs requested by an AUC department, unit, group, or community member for University-related purposes must be sent through the University printing and copying services unit.
The print shop's general manager or supervisor will determine the most efficient and economical method to best meet the requirements of the job/order, including the use of contracts with outside printers or copy vendors and print shop resources. Only senior print shop staff may make decisions regarding outside vendors and/or outsourcing jobs.
Copying Services
AUC's copy center uses state-of-the-art copying machines that are capable of scanning up to 120 high-quality black and white copies (front and back) per minute. We have provided an overview of the online ordering below.
If you get hard copy materials and need to print soft files, you will continue to place two separate orders: one order for copying, and one order for printing the soft files after you upload them.
Starting an online order is easy. You can log in to the printshop and make the order if you are authorized to do so through your cost center. Once you log in, click on the order entry to begin your order.
You will receive an email to confirming your order and total cost. You will eventually receive a second email informing you of the completion and location of your print job.
For internal printing requests, login using email credentials.
Important Note: There will be no more requests accepted through phone calls or regular emails, all requests must be made through the online system.
