Copy-Plus

Copy-Plus is the document duplication and delivery service exclusively for teachers.

Our purpose: To reduce the burden on teachers to make copies.

Current ASAP service: 5 school-days from Mail & Parcel Delivery Services to delivery to your school.

We appreciate any additional production and delivery time you give us.

Reminder: Copy-Plus is closed on MCPS holidays.

Copy-Plus is funded centrally, so it is free to teachers. It offers the following:

  • 1- and 2-sided printing in black ink
  • 8½ x 11 page size
  • 3-hole drilled, collated, and stapled in sets
  • Uncollated. Packaged as separate sheets
    (1, 1, 1; 2, 2, 2; 3, 3, 3)
  • Limited color paper and card stock are available in white and pastel shades of yellow, blue, green, and pink. Bright colors are not available

Options for landscape, double-sided printing:

  • Head-to-head: The front and back images are set up so both images are printed on the same end of the sheet.
  • Head-to-toe: The front and back images are set up so that the tops of each side are printed at opposite ends from each other.

The normal turnaround time for Copy-Plus service is 5 business days from when the envelope is picked up from your school. However, peak demand weeks (usually at the beginning of each quarter) may cause slower service.


Two Options to submit jobs to Copy Plus: 

You can submit your Copy Plus orders in two ways: through Mail & Parcel Delivery Services or electronically via the Copy-Plus platform.

Option 1: Mail & Parcel Delivery Services Orders

  1. Place your document masters into the large orange Copy-Plus envelopes available in your school office.
  2. Complete the work order form on the front of the envelope.
  3. Seal and place the envelope in the Mail & Parcel Delivery Services outgoing box at your school.
  4. Orders with special requests may experience slight delays.

Option 2: Electronic Orders (Preferred)

Teachers and school staff can submit orders electronically using our new Copy-Plus platform:

  1. Submit your orders online: Click on the link to the New Platform to place your order(s) and attach your documents. If you experience any issues, please contact Felix at copyplus@mcpsmd.org.

⚠️ Please do NOT use this AppSheet form to submit Teacher Guides, CKLA 6–8 Activity Books, or Math 6 / Geometry materials.
➡️ Scroll down to find the correct forms for these types of orders.

  1. Accepted file formats: You can upload PDFs (preferred for accuracy), Word, PowerPoint, or Excel files.
    • Why PDFs? Submitting PDFs ensures that your document prints exactly as it appears on your computer, avoiding formatting issues that can occur with other file types.
  2. Order management: You can track the status of your order in real time, make edits, cancel submissions, and duplicate previous requests.
  3. Mobile app: We have also launched a mobile app that allows you to manage your orders directly from your phone, giving you greater convenience and flexibility.

We recommend using the electronic platform whenever possible for the fastest and most efficient service. However, both submission options are acceptable.

Why Use PDF Files?

A PDF is an ideal way to share a document without worrying about formatting issues. A Portable Document Format (PDF) file is a universally compatible document format that ensures your file appears the same on any device, whether on screen or in print, regardless of the computer, software, or printer used to view it. 

PDF files are also highly efficient, using only a fraction of the memory space of the original file, without any loss of quality. The smaller file size makes them perfect for email attachments and easy file sharing.
