University Printing & Copying Services (PCS) is a full-service printing facility providing offset and digital printing, high-speed copying, mailing services, copier management, and wide format printing as well as graphic design and type composition services to all faculty, staff, and students of the University. PCS has been Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified since 2012.

The Printing Division can produce all forms of printed material, including business stationery and forms, promotional brochures and mailings, journals and magazines, books, and packaging solutions. Print orders may be placed on the PCS website, by email, by calling (434) 924-7186, or by visiting the PCS printing facility at 2474 Old Ivy Road.

The Copy Division consists of copy centers located at the UVA Bookstore, the Hospital, and at 2474 Old Ivy Road. The Copy Division also manages copiers throughout the University, hospital and clinics. PCS copy services produce black-and-white or full-color copies and a wide variety of finished duplicating products, including short-run books, newsletters, large posters, and customized course packets. Other products include exhibition and signage materials, embroidery and bubble test scanning. All centers accept walk-in orders or jobs via email at uvacopy@virginia.edu. In most cases, finished jobs are delivered to on-grounds offices the next day. CopyCard departmental charge cards are available for copy machines requiring access with direct departmental billing.

University policy requires observance of all applicable copyright laws, and Printing & Copying Services must adhere to this policy. Although there are many situations that allow copying of copyrighted materials for academic use within the limits of what is known as the Fair Use Doctrine, copying beyond Fair Use limits without written permission from the copyright owner is not permitted.
