HOW TO PRINT
When you decide to print from a library computer workstation, you will be given a choice of three "queues" from the standard pop-up printer window.Black and white (default) \\in-ulib-baker-Any black and white printer (This is the default for all printing and costs IUPUI Graduate Students $0.04 per page and Non-Affiliates $0.07 per page.)
Color \\in-ulib-baker-Color Printer (This is to be used for standard color copies and is $1.00 per page)
Photo \\in-ulib-baker-Photo Printer (This printer does not have paper. The paper must be purchased from the 2nd Floor Circulation Desk. Only HP Glossy paper will work and it costs $1.00 per page to purchase and $1.00 per page printed.)
After you click "OK" for your print job, proceed to the closest print release station. Login using your campus Network ID and password(just like campus email) and be prompted to swipe your JagTag (or Printer-Copier Card). You will then be able to view a screen of your pending print job(s) and the option to continue to print or cancel. (Unprinted documents that have not been cancelled will remain in the system for 24 hours before being automatically deleted.)The screen will display any cost for each print job and the bottom of the screen will show the remaining balance on your card.
How do I print from my Windows (XP and Vista) laptop?
- First, establish a connection to the IUSECURE Wireless Network

How do I print from my Macintosh (Snow Leopard -10.6, Leopard -10.5 and Tiger-10.4) laptop?
WARNING: Before changing the shortname on your Macbook as listed below, FileVault must be disabled or you must know your FileVault Master Password. Your best option is to disable it.
FileVault is a native security application that encrypts all the Home information on your Macbook. If you disable FileVault, make sure you migrate all of your files from FileVault to your Shared Folder (Macintosh HD, Users, Shared), Restart, and then you'll be able to disable FileVault.
To find Filevault: Go into System Preferences, Security, FileVault.
IMPORTANT: The users account name (short name) on the laptop MUST match the IUPUI Account username. If it does not, your print jobs will not be available on any Print Servers on the IUPUI Campus.
FOR 10.5: Leopard has a built in Feature to allow you to change your short name. In order to change your Short Name, go to System Preferences, Accounts, Unlock the padlock. Right-Click on your Computer Account Name and choose "Advanced Options". You should see Short Name. Change this to your IUPUI Username, click OK, and restart your computer.
FOR 10.4: There is a utility that will allow you to change your laptop username to match your IU/IUPUI username. The utility is called ChangeShortName and is available by clicking Here (While this is a very stable utility, this is not a University utility, and University Library assumes no responsibility for using this software).
After the Utility has downloaded or you've manually made the change inside of Leopard and have autenticated to IUSECURE, please follow the steps below for Black and White Printing:
- Please download the IU Print Locator utility from IUWare.
- Once installed, authenticate with your IUPUI Username and Passphrase/password
- Select the Campus (IUPUI), Building(University Library), and Printer (Any Black and White Printer)

TIPS FOR SAVING TIME, MONEY, AND PAPER:
- Before printing, go to the toolbar and select "Print Preview" using the File pulldown menu or the Print Preview icon. At the bottom of the window, it will identify how many pages in your document (e.g. 1/3 means you're viewing page one of three pages). Print only the pages you need. You can set the print job to print all or selected pages within a document. If you need assistance, please ask a Computer Consultant (4th level by the elevators) or at the Reference Desk.
Always check for blank pages at the end of your document.
- Save the file to a removable drive, Resources under My WorkSpace in Oncourse CL, or email it to yourself. You can read it later and decide whether or not you really need to print it.
- What are examples of a removable drive?
- 3 ½ In. Floppy Disk
- Flash(Jump) USB Drive
- Also save files to a CD ROM disk by burning it to the CD ROM. (Ask a Computer Consultant for help with this.)
- Compact Flash (CF) or Secure Digital (SD) cards
- 3 ½ In. Floppy Disk
- PowerPoint slides don't have to be printed one slide per page. In PowerPoint 2007, go to the Office Button (top left hand corner) and select Print. In the lower left hand corner of the printer window under "Print what," change the pull-down menu to Handouts. Adjust the number of slides per page anyone from 1 to 9 slides per page (6 is the default).
- When printing a PDF file, always remember to click the Print icon next to “Save a Copy” instead of going to File and then Print. If you go to File and then Print, this will only print off frames and will not print off your document.

ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR UNIVERSITY LIBRARY:
- Can I bring my own paper?
No. Changing paper quality levels and types is hard on the printers, resulting in higher printer maintenance costs and there is no good way for the library to charge users with their own paper.
On the 4 th floor (to your left as you exit the elevator) is a printer designated for Custom Paper. The only custom paper allowed is résumé laser jet paper and colored laser jet paper. The sheets of paper must be no larger than 8 ½" x 11”.
Can I print if I'm using a 64-Bit Operating System?
The current Print System is not compatible with 64-bit Operating Systems. To find out if you have a 64-Bit Operating System: In Vista, click on the Start button and right click on Computer and choose Properties. Next to System type, you will either see 32-Bit or 64-Bit. In XP, follow the same instructions except Computer is My Computer. Once updates to the system are available and 64-bit can be accommodated, we'll update our FAQs.
Once I print to a Print Release Station, how long does my print job remain in the queue?
The print job will remain in the queue for 48 hours. After 48 hours, if the job has not been released, it will automatically be deleted.
Is Duplex printing available in University Library?
No printers are set for duplex printing inside of University Library. If you wish to print in duplex, please visit one of the Student Technology Centers (More Info).
