As the budget process begins for fiscal year 2007/2008, the Duplicating Center finds it necessary to increase the rate charged to departments for duplicating services by $.01/copy.This would bring the chargeback rate to $.03/copy for B&W copies, and $.04/copy for colored paper copies. Note that our charge for colored copies will remain at $.40/copy. These increased prices remain significantly less than you would find at a local copy center like Kinkos.

Understand that the Duplicating Center has not implemented a rate increase in over 10 years, while continuing to absorb the rising cost of copy paper. With operating margins shrinking we can no longer absorb these increases without increasing the chargeback rate.

Please keep this increase in mind as you go forward with your budget proposals for the next fiscal year.
