Getting Started
Placing an Order

The process is as easy as 1-2-3 when starting a project with Printing Services.

  1. Fill out the Printing Services "Service Request Authorization" 3-part carbonless form provided free of charge by simply calling us at Ext. 2315 or by visiting the Printing Services facility. You can view a Printing Services sample "Service Request Authorization", filled out, on this site. Please complete this form with your specific needs, and requested due date and a departmental authorized signature.
  2. Contact the specific area supervisor (Design, Offset Printing, or Copy Center) by e-mail, voice mail, or in person at the Printing facility to discuss your specific needs. Let us develop a timeline schedule for the production and completion of your project.
  3. Supply Printing Services with both a hard copy and a diskette of the text and/or images to save both time and cost. In the design production, multiple proofs will be provided for your review and approval. Every effort will be made to create an accurate proof. Since there is always the possibility of incorrect interpretation and typesetting errors, we request that you review the multiple proofs very carefully. Note: Plant errors will be corrected without extra charge. Any alterations that materially change your project will incur proportionate extra charges called customer alterations.

Pricing Information
Printing Services' fees are based on an hourly labor rate plus the cost of the materials. Any job that requires special guaranteed completion dates other than the normal turnaround time should be discussed with the production area supervisor for completion dates.. A "Special Handling" fee may be added to the regular labor rate.

It is recommended that the completion date for your project be discussed in advance with the specific production supervisor.
