How do I release a print job sent to a printer that does not have a release station?

Print the document and select the printer CampusPrinting. Visit the Campus Printing Web Portal. Go to Jobs Pending Release (left). Find the job you want to print and click [print] (right). Select the printer you want to print to.

Note: Once you print the document from the Campus Printing Web Portal, the print job will be released immediately. Make sure you're able to get to the printer soon after completing these steps.

Can I print from my phone/mobile device?

Yes! Add the printer to your iOS or Android phone and follow these steps to print.

Is printing available for campus guests?

Yes, visit Plaid Cash Printing.

Where should I print high-volume or special (glossy paper, color) print jobs?

High brightness coated paper is available for the color laser printer in CFA. Large print jobs should be printed at one of the multi-printer sites: Baker Hall 140 corridor, Hunt Reference area, Sorrells Library or Wean 5200.

How can I tell if a specific campus printer is busy?

Visit the Printer Status page for real-time printer status.

Can I cancel jobs that I no longer wish to print?



Yes. At any print station, tap your CMU ID or Plaid Cash card. Select the job you would like to delete and tap the Delete button. Deleted jobs cannot be recovered.

Note: Your print quota is not affected by print jobs that you delete before releasing them. Jobs not printed before the expiration time are deleted from the print queue.
