With the coming of age of the Internet in the early- and mid-1990s, a degree of casualness took over computer users. Grammatical incorrectness was no longer a faux pas and laziness dictated style, grammer, and spelling. Repeated slacking off with Internet communications slowly infiltrates professional communications and degrades the quality of work.

While communicating over the Internet, people would begin to spell things as they sound, regardless of whether or not what they write is a word. For this reason, professional communications are degraded by this form of communication. They are auditory signals, not visual. An effective visual presentation will combine a professional feel from the content as well as means of deliverance.

Communicating ideas cheaply has become commonplace with the Internet, it should be no different with a live audience.

WolfCopy

NC State provides easily accessible, professional grade printers to students, faculty, and staff for a minimal cost. WolfCopy is responsible for maintenance and support of the printers in the public labs. The 6 cent fee for printing is used to offset the cost of paper, toner, labor, etc. Full color printing is also available in select labs for $0.60 per page.

To be able to use the public printers, you must purchase print quota from WolfPrint. You can find instructions on how to do this at the above link. However, the minimum purchase is $5.00, which will pay for about 83 pages. When you print a page, $0.06 will deducted from you print quota account. To check your print quota or your WolfCopy usage, visit the WolfPrint Utility.

You are even able to print off of lab printers from your personal computer. To do this, you must log-in to the WolfPrint Utility. If you click on the "Print a File" link, you will be sent to a page with a dialouge box with a "Browse..." button next to it. Select the file you wish to print, and then choose your printer and click the print button. Your quota will be deducted automatically. To do this, make sure your file is a PDF, PostScript, or plain vanilla ASCII file. Otherwise, it will not get printed correctly. To print Office documents, they must first be distilled into Adobe PDF files. For information on this process try the WolfPrint FAQ.
