We use Pharos, which does the first thing you ask. There are terminals at
each printer where they can swipe their card. They get a certain quota of
money each semester and then they have to manually add money to pay for
printing once they run out of what we give them.
It works quite well and has allowed us to allow students to print to our
printers from their own computers. Previously, they had to print from a
college-owned computer.
