Faculty & Staff Printing Procedures
The current MPS (Managed Print Services) contract between SCC and Systel is a cost-per-copy tiered model, in which we get a substantial volume discount for pages copied/printed in the print shop. The cost per page for the print shop is 录 of the cost per page on the MFP and printer fleet. Therefore, any copy or print jobs with over 100 pages B/W or 50 pages color should be sent to the print shop ahead of time. Toner, staples, and other supplies for any MFP (Multi-Function Printer) used by faculty and staff should be requested through the print shop, and Dan Shea (shead@sandhills.edu, x3880) will deliver the supplies. Any other problems should be reported through the Then the ITS staff can determine if the issue warrants a call to Systel for support, or if the problem can be fixed quickly in our systems.
Any problems with computer lab printers should be reported to the secretary of the department where the lab printer is located. The secretaries stock toner for the lab printers, and they should be the points of contact for reporting issues to Systel, in order to minimize the number of SCC employees contacting Systel. The secretaries have a guide that includes the following information regarding lab printers:
- Identify a location to store a spare toner cartridge for each type of printer in your departments.
- Place an order for these spare cartridges by getting the Equipment ID numbers from the sticker on each printer and calling Systel Customer Support at 1-800-849-1500.
- Or order supplies through the support request tool called e-info on the Systel website at:

- This same tool can be used to report problems with these printers since Systel has taken them under contract and they are responsible for the maintenance and supplies (other than the paper, which will still be requested and supplied by the physical plant).
- Requests for paper should be made through the Maintenance Request Form in SchoolDude by selecting the problem type of 鈥淢oving鈥 and specifying the number of cases of paper in the description (as per instructions from Ellen Spencer, Office Coordinator, Physical Plant).
- The print shop will recycle the empty cartridges through channels made available through the manufacturer鈥檚 website.
