Bard Print
BardPrint is a declining balance program that puts a non-cash value subsidy of $37.50 on your Bard ID for printing and copying. The goal of BardPrint is to make convenient quality printing and copying available in a way that is sustainable and affordable for most, if not necessarily all, printing costs in all semesters.

5. Press the OK button.
6. You will see a list of the jobs by filename that you’ve sent to the printer. Press the box next to the job you’d like to print. A ✓will appear next to the job(s).

Print Pricing
The balance at the start of each semester is reset to $37.50 and will decline each time you make a print, copy or scan according to the following rates:
Single-sided prints/copies……………….4 cents each
Double-sided prints/copies………………7 cents each
Scans……………………………………….1/2 cent each
This translates to 937 single-sided prints/copies, or 1,070 double-sided prints/copies, or 7,500 scans that you can send to your computer, in whatever combination you choose. If your initial semester balance runs out, you will need to add value to a FLEXprint account at the Student Accounts Office by cash or check. So, according to the rates above, $10 will get you an additional 200 copies. The Student Accounts Office, open Monday-Friday / 9am-5pm, is located on the first floor of the B&G building directly in front of the Reem-Kayden Science Center.
The quota gets reset at the start of every semester. If you run out of your quota you can add value to your card (cash or check) by going to the Student Accounts office located on the 1st floor of B&G.
