<span style="font-size: 13px;">To copy class materials you have 3 choices:</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
1. e-mail them to <a href="mailto:dsbcopy@gmail.com" target="_blank">dsbcopy@gmail.com</a> (include your department
and quantity of copies needed in the e-mail) You will receive an e-mail when your copies are completed and ready to pick up in the DSB. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. Stop by the DSB any time during our open hours to copy them yourself.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. Stop by one of the university copy centers and have them make copies for you.</div>

<span style="font-size: 13px;">The
DSB only has black and white copying capabilities! It is standard
procedure for the DSB to make all copies on white paper. Multi-page
documents are printed double sided and stapled. If you would like colored
instead of white paper, we do have a small selection, please request
when e-mailing your copy request.</span></div>

from digital classes must send their final class lists (after folks
have added and dropped) to the DSB supervisor at <a href="mailto:dsb@umn.edu">dsb@umn.edu </a>before
their students are able to print. It takes a few days to enter them
into the system. All other classes use the pay-as-you-go method for
making prints.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Can I bring my classes into the DSB when the DSB supervisors are not there or during closed hours?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />No,
there is no after-hours access. Classes are allowed in the DSB only
during regular open lab hours when the supervisors and monitors are
present.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Can I bring my class in last-minute for a demo?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />No.
Please arrange times for in-class demos with the DSB supervisor, dsb@umn.edu, with at least 48 hours notice, but preferably at the
beginning of the semester so we can avoid conflicts with other class
demos. We expect instructors will want to teach the demos themselves to
their students.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Do students have to pay for test strips?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />Normally
no, but if a student makes excessive test strips then they will be
charged the regular linear inch rate for the extras. All test
prints and contact prints must be paid for.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Will the DSB supervisors print or prepare my files for me or my students?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />No.
Users must prepare their own digital files (off site) and be familiar
with resolution, color profiles, and Photo Shop. The staff will assist
new users and help with any problems along the way, but they are not
there to print files for others. Their first priority is to help the
students learn the equipment.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Can students print whatever they want on the experimental printer?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />No,
there are limits even on this printer. Students cannot run wet media
through the experimental printer, including wet-coated papers and
surfaces and prints with wet inks on them. Newsprint should also not be
used even on these printers as the fibers clog the ink nozzles too
badly.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 1em;">Do students have to pay for prints that don't turn out well when using the experimental printer?</span><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><br />Yes, students must pay for all prints on these machines. The DSB supervisors maintain the<br />experimental
printer in the best shape they can, but due to the unregulated use of
materials we cannot guarantee accurate color results, adequate paper
feeding, or printing with uncoated media. Please discuss with your
students the experimental nature of the process so that they fully
understand the additional costs for using this printer. Send any tips
you have for getting good results. </span>UofM_DSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18437591872504066626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048499034639195483.post-14845419317462339782014-10-01T17:24:00.002-07:002017-01-26T06:38:07.038-08:00DSB Usage Agreement

computer stations and print and scan their own projects. We have Epson
9800/9900 printers (with printing up to 44 in. wide) and 4800/4880/4900 printers (with printing up to 17 in. wide), two Nikon 9000 film scanners, and one Epson
V700 flatbed scanner and one Epson 1640XL over sized scanner. Two paper media are available for use on the
designated digital photo printers: Epson Enhanced Matt Paper and Epson
Premium Luster Photo Paper. Students may bring in their
own paper, but can only use coated media on the photo printers. There are two experimental printers, one 9800, one 4800, where students are able to use non-coated photo papers to experiment on. <br /><br />• The DSB is not a general computer-use room; please prepare your files offsite.<br /><br />•
The DSB is monitored by the DSB supervisors during all open hours;
there is no access outside of regularly scheduled hours. The supervisors
are on hand to assist users with scanning, printing, handing out and
loading paper (if needed), and other aspects of the digital workflow.
However, users must already understand how to prepare digital files for
printing (we do not teach Photoshop or how to prepare files for printing). <br /><br />•
Presently access to the DSB is restricted to students, staff, and
faculty affiliated with the Department of Art. and University of Minnesota.<br />
<br />
• Before
you are allowed to print in the DSB you must be enrolled in a digital
art class, have attended a training session (recommended) or have signed
the DSB Training Contract (please look for an additional blog post containing this contract) and gone over the printing directions briefly with the DSB attendant.<br />
<br />
<div>
•
Students currently enrolled in digital art classes and paying a
digital course fee have automatic access, once their instructors sends
the DSB the student class list. Everyone else - e.g. students taking
independent studies or BFA/MFA credits in non-digital areas, working on
Senior Projects from non-digital areas, faculty and instructors from
non-digital areas, and staff - must take the tech demo and/or have
signed the Training Contract. </div>
<div>
<br />• All prints must be
tracked and paid for prior to leaving the DSB. For students currently
enrolled in digital classes we use a course-fee system. Enrolled
students receive a credit for up to so many digital prints for the
course fee they pay, which is tracked in an Excel spreadsheet database
based on current class lists. Instructors MUST forward their class list
to the lead DSB technician, Caroline Houdek at <a href="mailto:dsb@umn.edu">dsb@umn.edu</a>,
before their students are allowed to print using their fees. After an
enrolled student uses his or her course-fee allotment, they are able to
make additional prints, paying for prints as they go. Unused credit is
not refunded but is used to pay for test strips, maintenance tanks, and
other general expenses of the DSB.<br /><br />• For students, staff, and
faculty who are not enrolled in an art class they pay as they go.
Payment is either made using cash or check paid at the equipment Cage
W139 or using Gopher Gold. Note, students must first ad money to their
card before they can use it in the DSB. C<a href="http://www1.umn.edu/ucard/umtc/valueports.html">lick here for locations where money can be added to the Gopher Gold Card.</a> </div>

• Payment
must be made before prints leave the DSB; no tabs are carried. The DSB
is not responsible for prints left behind to be paid for later, but
users will still need to pay for any damaged prints. Students cannot
print using other students course fees.</div>
<br />•
Priority during the last 2 weeks: During the last two weeks of the
semester each student is only allowed to make up to one 1-hour
reservation per day for the 4800 printers OR one 2-hour reservation per
day for the 9800 mural printers. Also students, staff, and faculty who
are not enrolled in a digital class should not plan on printing during
these weeks. The DSB receives a higher-than-normal volume of users
during this time. All students in classes have priority.<br /><br /><br />• <b>Unused course-fee print credits:</b>
There are no refunds for unused portions of student credits, the
remainder stays in general DSB account. Students do not all print the
same amounts for each assignment or project. This means that some
students will not exhaust their full course-fee print credit: the DSB
depends on the unused portions to help pay for maintenance tanks, Kraft
paper, unexpected repairs, etc. We recognize that it may seem unfair,
but it is similar to what happens in all other art courses; all students
pay the same exact materials fee, but they each use less or more
amounts of materials.<br /><br />• No food or drink is allowed in the DSB.<br /><br />• Failure to follow these policies will result in losing DSB privileges.UofM_DSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18437591872504066626noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048499034639195483.post-35730293962987452262014-10-01T17:15:00.000-07:002014-10-01T17:15:44.340-07:00Department of ArtThe Digital Service Bureau for learning is supported by the University of Minnesota Department of Art: <a href="http://www.art.umn.edu/">http://www.art.umn.edu/</a><br />
