Today’s Topic: How to expedite small printing/copying orders
FedExKinko’s will be removing their equipment by June 22, 2007. With their departure,
there have been many inquiries on how to get expedited services for envelopes,
letterheads, color copies, large volume black and white copies and small dollar offset
printing jobs. Please follow these procedures for future work.
Letterheads, Envelopes, Business Cards, Color Copies, Large Volume B&W Copies
Our first choice for this type of work should still be FedExKinko’s. We are now
participating in a TEXMAS contract that provides extremely low rates for this type of
work. The contract provides for FedEx delivery direct to your desktop. There are several
ways to deliver your original copy to them.
1. The preferred method of ordering work is through the Hoof Prints Doc Store. To
access the FedEx Kinko’s DocStore® site, click on the following link (it’s
recommended that you save the link in your favorite’s folder for easy access
later):
https://docstore.kinkos.com/tamuk_staff
Enter your user name: (your tamuk email (i.e. ralph.stephens@tamuk.edu) and
password: (tamukstaff). Note: It’s strongly recommended that you change your
password after logging onto the site; click on the “Help” button at the top of the
site and then select “Your Account” for assistance.
If you require assistance with submitting an order, just click on the “Help” button
and select “Send & Print Orders.”.
Jobs submitted through the docstore will be processed at the Corpus Christi Store
which is under new management. We are anticipating a greatly improved level of
service from this store.
The Docstore has many conveniences; including several templates for commonly
ordered stationery.
2. For extremely large or complicated print jobs, you can upload the file via FTP by
going to
ftp://tamuk4402@ftp.kinkos.com

How to pay for FedExKinko’s Services
**In order to take advantage of the TEXMAS contract pricing, you should use
your FedExKinko’s account or set up a new personalized corporate account with
your University Pcard. You should make an effort to get a firm quote on the price
and delivery on all work submitted to FedExKinko’s.
For smaller, fast turnaround copy projects, departments may choose to use a local copy
center. Orders to local copy centers must use the Pcard.
Offset Press, Large Run 4 Color Process, Complex Binding Projects
The total job cost will be a critical factor for projects that are more conducive to offset
press or other “ink on paper” processes.
If the total cost is less than $5,000, the authority is delegated to the department. You can
make the purchase via an L doc. We strongly recommend that you try to use HUB
vendors for these projects.
If the total cost is anticipated to be greater than $5,000, then you must submit the job to
the Procurement Office through an R doc. The Procurement Office will require detailed
specifications and will solicit bids through the marketplace.
Please contact the Office of Procurement & General Services if you have questions about
this procedure.
