Printing

As part of NYIT’s commitment to sustainability, a new print control system is being implemented in the libraries and computer labs at the Old Westbury and Manhattan campuses.   The new system aims to eliminate excess use of paper, toner, and other resources associated with printing, and will be operational in the near future. 

Each semester, each student at the Old Westbury or Manhattan campuses will receive an allotment of $50 for printing and/or photocopying.  Anything above that will be the responsibility of the student, payable via FLEX funds.  Please see the chart below for print/photocopy fees:

How the Program Works

Printers: When a student initiates a print command, the PC or laptop will ask for a myNYIT username and password.  The student follows the system prompts and proceeds with the print job, which can be retrieved from the printer when completed.   Print jobs remain in the queue for thirty minutes, so if there is a problem with the printout, it can be fixed and the job reprinted or the print job can be routed to another printer. 

Copy Machines: For photocopies, the student swipes his/her NYIT ID card through the copier card reader and proceeds with making copies.
