Does the institution limit free printing for students in all computer labs and libraries?:
Yes

A brief description of how printing is limited:

Elon has a print management system, which reduced printing in computer labs and the library by 70% in the first full year of implementation on the Elon campus.
Students who want to print more than 3 sheets must go to a release station and swipe their Phoenix Card (student ID card) before the requested document will print. Less than 3 sheets will print without going through the print management system. Students are allotted about 500 sheets per semester though it is rare for a student to use all of his or her allotment. There is a per page charge for anything over the allotment. In addition, duplex is the default on all computer lab and library printers.
The School of Law campus in Greensboro utilizes the print management system with a higher allotment.
