Resetting your printing balance

The desktop icon which shows the cost of your printing will revert to £0.00 from 1 August. After that, the balance will continue to run (in minus figures) as you print so you will be able to see exactly what the cost is as you go along.

Some types of printing are more expensive than others and the way you lay out documents and the printing options you choose all affect the cost.

Why do we show the printing balance on your desktop?
The printing you do is charged to your department and this tool helps you to keep track. It also gives you a better idea of the cost of print so you can decide whether it is the most effective way of sharing or referring to documents.
