 ITS Duplication Policies

ITS provides the CD and DVD duplication service with the intent of helping the campus staff produce copies of their original projects quickly and easily.  Duplication services will not be performed on a walk-in basis. 

COPYRIGHT LIMITATIONS
Duplication of CD and DVD is restricted to protect both fair access and copyrighted material.  No commercially copyrighted discs may be duplicated.  ITS will not be able to duplicate copyrighted materials without proper permission from the rightful owner(s) of the copyright.  For more information, please consult http://www.copyright.umich.edu/ .

SMALL ORDERS
ITS will not duplicate less than ten (10) copies of a single CD or DVD disk.  ITS will not perform 1-to-1 disk copy services.  Small duplication requests must be made at least 2 full business days in advance of the desired completion date. 

LARGE ORDERS
CD and DVD blank media are stocked by ITS in anticipation of casual demand by UM-Flint faculty, staff, and student organizations.  Requests for excessive numbers of media by any group or individual may be denied if satisfying that request will deplete our stock and thereby render us unable to satisfy the requests of others.

Any order exceeding 100 CDs or DVDs will require committee approval and must be made at least 7 full business days in advance.  ITS reserves the right to decline any order larger than 1,000 CDs or DVDs.  ITS suggests using a professional duplication service such as DiscMakers http://duplication.discmakers.com/mcm/discmakers/index.jsp.

DUPLICATION SESSION CHARGES
ITS adds a duplication session surcharge to cover the cost of labor and wear on the equipment.  A session surcharge is charged per each batch of 50 disks that are duplicated and is applicable even if the order is for less than 50 copies.

PAYMENT OPTIONS
Cash payments (exact amount) can be made for services costing $20 or less.  ITS will accept checks and credit card payments.  Charge back to departments is also available through departmental chart fields.

CERTIFIED MEDIA
You may provide ITS with the media to duplicate your CD or DVD (8x DVDs only).  Please consult with ITS to have your media approved.  However, if you wish to have a graphic printed on the CD or DVD you must use certified media.  This certified media may be obtained by purchasing the disks through ITS or by purchasing them from one of these links: 

Certified DVD media:  http://www.cddimensions.com/cd-r_media/tai-dvd47spysb8.asp

Certified CD media:  http://www.cddimensions.com/cd-r_media/tai-cdr80sphp.asp

FAILURE OF BLANK MEDIA
If blank media fails during the duplication process, and the customer has supplied the media, ITS cannot be held responsible for replacing the damaged media. If blank media fails during the duplication process, and ITS has supplied the media, ITS will replace the damaged media, if brought to our attention within thirty (30) days of service.

PRINTING
Graphics or text can be printed on CDs and DVDs for an additional fee.  The additional fee will be based on the complexity of the graphic you wish to print and whether it needs to be printed in color.  This additional fee will be determined by ITS when presented with the desired graphic/text.

Sample label costs (these are examples, not actual quotes):

  • Design is composed of simple strings of text with no graphics or 1 simple graphic:
    • Design = $10
    • Printing:
      Black/White/no graphic = $0.15/disk
      Black/White/1 graphic = $0.20/disk
      Color/no graphic = $0.20/disk
      Color/1 graphic = $0.25/disk
  • Complex design with graphics
    • Design = $25 (labels requiring more than 1 hour for designing will be charged $25/hour)
    • Printing:
      Color = $0.30/disk

DUPLICATION OF VHS TAPES
ITS will not mass-duplicate VHS tapes.  If you need mass duplication of a VHS tape you may consult http://www.discmakers.com/ or locate another company that provides VHS duplication services. 

The ITS Video Production Center has equipment that you can use to make a single copy of a VHS tape and also a VHS/DVD Recorder to duplicate VHS to DVD; please consult http://ww2.umflint.edu/its/labs/3106WSW.htm for more information.
