Purchasing printer paper

Paper for printing and copying is included in the per impression charges for the multi-functional devices (MFD) and printers on Drake’s campus. So when you order paper from OfficeMax/Depot for these machines, please use FOAPAL 100000-4820-70000-206, rather than your individual department number. We have included common white paper sizes as well as popular 20# colored paper on the Sustainable Print Program Shopping List for Drake, found on the OfficeMax site (see instructions below). If you require special paper that is not on this list, please use your department budget FOAPAL number.

To order paper from the approved list, go to www.officemaxsolutions.com and click on:

  1. “Create New Office Product Order”
  2. “Continue”
  3. “Shopping Lists” (should just pop up but if not, click on “Shopping Lists”)
  4.  “Sustainable Print Program Paper”
  5.  Triangle on the “FOAPAL 21 Digits for this Order” drop down
  6. Choose FOAPAL 100000-4820-70000-206, or type it in

Please review these processes with others in your area who order paper. Thank you.
