We use a (Windows/Novell) product to control printing - however the usage of
it is near non-existent. Staff want the students to be able to print, even
if they run out through misuse, and charging caused unacceptable admin
overhead. We're planning on scrapping it in the summer (as part of the Linux
migration)...

Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] OT: Print quota's

Does anyone here limit the number of pages a pupil can print?

Does anyone for example give each user x number of prints per year and
then
charge for any excess?

If so, what are the pros and cons


I'd be grateful to hear other peoples views and opinions on this. We
spent
about 2k on printing last year...
