Student Printing Procedure

ATUS has been working hard to improve the campus student printing experience. A web client has been added to all the ATUS lab machines, so printing can be released from the workstation. We've also added popup notifications for the following:

  • Your print jobs exceed 75 pages or 250MB in size - you'll be notified to make adjustments and the job will be automatically deleted.
  • You do not have sufficient funds to print your job - you can add funds to your print quota online or at a Print Quota station. Insufficient fund jobs will be deleted after 4 hours.

Printing Instructions

  1. To release your print job(s) from your lab station, double-click on the desktop icon labeled"Print Your Documents".

  2. Enter your username and password.

  3. To print a job, click on the empty checkbox to the left of your file's name. To print all the jobs in the list, click the empty checkbox at the top.
    print release
  4. After selecting "Print", your document(s) will start printing. "Delete" will delete the selected document from the print queue. "Refresh" will show your documents sitting in queue.

Feedback Messaging:

  • If you do not have sufficient funds in your print queue or print balance, a popup message will display notifying you that the print job was not able to complete and was deleted.
