      *Note: either queue can be used now to print in either black and white or color; simply select the desired mode in your document's print properties before submitting.
    • If the print queues are not available as choices, from your desktop open the Printer Refresh folder and open the desired shortcut from there. This will connect the print queue, and it will appear as a choice in 0our print  properties.
  3. Click Print to send your job to the print queue.
  4. To print out your document at the printer:
    • Go to the printer to which you would like to print.

    • From the Home screen, launch the PharosSRH app:
    • Tap your PennCard to the proximity card reader. 
    • You should hear a chirp as the reader picks up the information from the card, and you will see a message that you are being authenticated:
    • Once authenticated, you will see any documents that you have queued up and ready to print.
      Use the touchscreen to select your document, and then press Print or Print All:
    • You will see a message indicating that your job is printing:
    • Once your job has printed, tap the Logout button to log out of your account and return to the main screen:
    • Note: If you receive a message on that same screen indicating that your card cannot be found, and you need to register the card with your account:
      • Touch the display panel
      • Enter your username (pennkey), and hit OK:
         
      • When asked for a password, leave this blank and simply hit OK:
      • You should now be authenticated and have access to your print account.

Note:

  • Time-Limit: Documents sent to the print queues are held for 5 hours and can be released from any printer.
  • Duplex Default: Documents printed are duplex printed by default. To print single-sided, select the single-sided option from your print options.
