Submitting A Print Job

Sending a document to print on campus is very similar to printing on a local printer at home, however there are some minor differences. This page describes how to send a print job to the photocopiers and how to change preferences such as double sided and colour.

1: If you wish to print a document, go to file and print as you normally do in your application. You will be presented with the Print window.

2: If you wish to print in colour, change the printer by clicking on the printer name drop down box and select \\ysjps01\Colour. Note: you can change the number of copies and the pages you wish to print on this page.

Select the finishing tab by clicking on it. To change between single and double sided, change the option in the Print style by clicking on the drop down box and selecting the desired option. Press ok to dismiss the print properties window and press ok to submit the document for printing.

4: A uniflow print window will now appear similar to the one below:

It will list the details of the print job including the name of the document, the number of pages, colour or black and white and most importantly the cost. At this point you can chose to confirm the job by pressing Ok / Close or to cancel it by clicking on the Delete print job button.
