There is an exciting update to printing for fall 2020! We are piloting a contactless release option this fall. If you have a smartphone or tablet, bring it to the printer and follow the signs to scan the QR code and release your job when it's your turn.
Papercut Mobility Print allows for native printing from your macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, or Chrome device. Instructions vary depending on the device OS, but the basic idea is the same: set up the printer once, then you can print to MobilityPrint and release your job at one of 13 release stations around campus.
Black and white printing is still free
When you use the MobilityPrint queue and then release your job(s) at one of the release stations, printing is free! You should see an initial quota of 1000 pages if you check online. If your computer is showing you a quota, though, chances are you need to remove the old PaperCut Client.
Free increases can still be requested via the Computing Help Desk and our online form.
When preparing a print job to the mobilityprint printer, always check the paper size before sending!
For example, in Chrome on a Mac: File > Print > Change > mobilityprint > More settings > Paper size > Letter
