Profs Ponder Print Costs

A professor asks his students to print off a 23-page journal article to bring to the next class. In student speak, 23 pages means $1.15 worth of the $10 printing balance students receive at the beginning of each semester. $10 may seem like a sufficient amount. But, that gets students a mere 200 printed pages, which may not be enough for an entire semester of classes.
It's a struggle many UP students face, but what about the professors? If they do not have limits on printing, what encourages them to restrict their paper use in class?
