Filling out usage logs reminder

Lately the usage logs for the Epson, Chromira, and storage supplies have been getting a little sloppy. It is important to fill out every field, and to fill them out fully and legibly. Failure to do so can result in unnecessary charges. The usage log books have instructions and examples on each page, and if you are uncertain about any of them please ask a lab technician or send us an email after recording your numbers.

When you print next, please take the time to review the usage log instructions again, and also read the “Recording material usage” section of the Printer Usage Expectations notice above the Epson 11880 printer.

Epson Paper Discounts

In 2014 we will be introducing a new Epson solvent printer in the Digital Imaging Lab. The solvent printer will be setup for media such as adhesive vinyl, clear film, backlit, banner, etc. Some of these surfaces are already available for our 11880 printer so we will need to use up our existing stock before ordering the new solvent-compatible paper. Beginning December 1^st there will be discounts applied to the following paper types:

	Old price	New price
Tyvek 42″	$0.20/cm	$0.15/cm
Adhesive Vinyl 42″	$0.25/cm	$0.19/cm
Adhesive Vinyl 60″	$0.35/cm	$0.26/cm
Banner 54″	$0.30/cm	$0.23/cm

Please note that the discount applies to the paper only, and not the ink. These prices are subject to change, and do not apply to printing done before December 1st.
