Issue
Printing refund policy and how to request refund on qualifying print jobs.
Resolution
Refunds may be requested within 7 days of the print date. For refund requests involving poor output quality (i.e. illegible text due to low toner), please send scanned images or pictures of the document to print.refunds@umich.edu.
Poster printing refunds will only be honored for technical issues with the printer.
Log in to your MPrint account. On the Recent Print Jobs page, click Request Refund under the print job to submit your request.
