What's the Difference?

If you need to use a copy machine that has an attached card reader, you will need to have either copy privileges on your SU ID card or a separate departmental copy card.

Copy cards are useful in these situations:

  • Users do not have an ID card such as guests, volunteers, and temp staff
  • Users have a high turnaround (such as student staff) and you would prefer not to grant and suspend privileges on a quarterly basis

If neither of these apply, copy cards remain an option but keep in mind that each budget is limited to 2 departmental copy cards.

Copy privileges have the following advantages:

  • The monthly copy memo will list the total amounts charged by each individual
  • No need to check the card out in order to keep track of who is using it
  • The department is not responsible for lost card fees
