_aABSTRACT: STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: Despite advancements in digital technology, printing remains a crucial yet frequently problematic part of education. Essentially, current printing systems in educational institutions fail to meet the expectations of both teachers and students, negatively affecting both parties educational and professional futures. With that said, this study delves into four distinct yet major problems with educational printing: accessibility, interface complexity, payment difficulties, and sustainability. It stresses the need for accessible and user-friendly printing solutions for better educational results, actively promotes simple interfaces to accommodate all levels of users, highlights the significance of hassle-free payment options, and encourages the use renewable energy fuelled printing solutions. By tending to these issues, this study aims to construct a more efficient, convenient, and eco-friendly printing enfratructure appropriate for educational institutions. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY: The purpose of this research is to evaluate the usability and impact of the SolarPrint Hub. The SolarPrint Hub is a solar powered document printing vending machine designed for academic institutions. A quantitative research design has been employed in this research. This research design utilized various methods to comprehensively assess the system. The research was conducted in two main phases. First was the hub's design was refined with iterative feedback from a small group of users, then followed by rigorous tests with 100 students at different educational levels. Key variables tested in this research includes features of the hub, user satisfaction with the hub, operation efficiency of the hub;s environmental footprint. The data for this research was mainly collected through questionnaire surveys. The survey results have been analysed through some advanced statistical tools that were used to measure the efficiency and satisfaction of the Service Offer. A pilot study has been done to make sure that the research tools, procedures were reliable. Ethical issues are highly concerned in this research. Informed consent and privacy were scrupulously maintained in the research. With this research, it is hoped to provide an effective, convenient, and suitable printing solution for the academia, which would lead to better educational outcome as well as a cooler and more accessible academic environment. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS: Results show that the SDPVM, in terms of user satisfaction, performed with high evaluation from the users in both general use and considering each individual question with ratings from mean scores between (3.67-3.95) demonstrated in Table 3. Frequent comments from users show how much they liked using the SDPVM. They often praised its print quality, which they found excellent and comparable to traditional services. The easy, intuitive user interface improved user experience significantly in terms of reducing mistakes or errors and simplifying navigation. Users appreciated the reliability and consistency that the SDPVM demonstrated, noting how responsive it was to their inputs.The SDPVM consistently provided performance that is both smooth and efficient. Campus accessibility of the SDPVM accelerated the user needs, bring the benefits of user printing capability to the user. Efficient payment flow made to be satisfaction for all users of the SDPVM. Hence, the SDPVM effectively meets user needs for educational institutions that required the latest solution for high-quality, printing needs tht served to low-cost, efficiency, accessibility, and environment friendly product. CONCLUSION: The significance of incorporating user-centered design and sustainable technology into document printing solutions is underscored by this assessment. The positive response obtained by the Solar Document Printing Vending Machine (SDPVM) signifies the effective provision of high-quality printing services targeting user experience, conveniency and accessibility. The continuous improvements and updates are essential to the maintain lasting efficiency and eco-friendliness following the SDPVM objectives. The engagement and cooperation of management, and users help to swift responses to continuously changing educational community needs and technological developments in document printing. Such cooperation and improvements make the SDPVM, and similar initiatives bring the future of document printing much closer to a sustainable and efficiency. RECOMMENDATION: Drawing from the evaluation findings, several crucial recomme3ndations were suggested to heighten and expand the Solar Document Printing Vending Machine's (SDPVM) sustainability, user experience, and operational efficiency. By expanding into renewable energy resources, the environmental impact will be reduced substantially. Incorporating mobile payment platforms brings flexibility and convenience to the end-users. By upgrading the current screen to a larger one, visibility will be enhanced, and user-errors will be greatly reduced. Implementing a notification system through SMS and email alerts allows timely maintenance and minimize downtime. By introducing cloud printing functionality, accessibility and convenience are further heightened. In the end, by establishing a VIP queuing system and implementing proper queuing management as well as QR code scanning, the effectiveness and efficiency of the overall printing process will be enhanced, hence reducing wait times. These recommendations build upon one another and will lead the SDPVM to a brighter future and closer to becoming the trend of sustainable, secured printing, and highly satisfied users.
