You may view or print a single article multiple times and it will count as a single view towards the limit. An article is not counted toward your limit until you click on it within your results and actually view either the article or the page. You may view both your time and number of articles remaining in your subscription from within a pop-up accessible through the  link that appears in the top right of the screen once you've subscribed.

 For a 7-day pass, you are entitled to 200 article/page views with the same guidelines as above.
