Shared Accounts are for invoiced printing/copying and do not support quotas or fixed amounts. Some campuses sponsor printing for ongoing specific Non-employee groups on their campus whose members have maine.edu accounts. Now that printers are centrally owned and managed, this sponsored printing requires the creation of a Shared Account, linked to a University Budget, in order for users in those groups to print without charging to their Personal account. The attached form collects the needed information to determine if the request is appropriate.
This is not a replacement for semester ending "Free" printing or for campus subsidized printing. Those would be handled by Campus Card services.
Criteria
WARNING: Adhoc Shared Accounts will not be created for current or future employees who will have shared accounts available to them but want access to additional accounts. See
Department Printing and Copying Costs. The intended use is primarily for student groups or non-employees who have existing maine.edu accounts, commonly known as POI's.
