Print Management Help

USING OUR NEW PRINT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

 

It requires you to NAME the print job, give a password and then release it BEFORE PAPER COMES OUT OF THE PRINTER!

Do NOT leave the default name (it will not print the job if it begins with "http:" or "www").

 

Our new green initiative is designed to save paper.  Look on your mousepad for Printing Instructions.

Hints: 

  • After you click PRINT, WAIT for the POP-UP BOX.   This might take several seconds.
  • NAME the Print Job with your first name.
  • Choose your initials as your PASSWORD. Your password is NOT case sensitive.

 

THEN go to the PC Monitor (called Printer Release Station) NEXT TO the PRINTER

  •  At the Printer Release Station, highlight YOUR Print Job NAME and CLICK PRINT.
  • Then Enter your password.  NOW turn to the printer to find your print.

 

You can select another PRINTER at the Workstation OR Release Station.

 

You can send a print job with >50 pages, but it will NOT print at all. You must divide up the document first.

So in the print pop-up go to pages and print 1-49 and then print 50-xx.

 

Printers 1 to 4 are able to print double-sided; Printer 5 does not print double-sided.

 

For double-sided printing of Adobe/.pdf files:

  • Click printer icon within PDF file
  • Click Properties in pop-up box; and choose Two-sided printing

 

For multiple pages per sheet (Adobe/.pdf) documents:

  • Click Adobe printer icon and click Page Scaling pull-down.
  • Choose Multiple Pages Per Sheet option and
  • Go to Pages per Sheet and choose the # you want.

 

If you are using WebCT and cannot see the pop-up box, minimize the WebCT screen first.

 

If you have problems, see the PC HELP DESK, Service Desk, or REF desk.
