Printing and Copying

• A Printsmart account is required to print or copy from any of the networked printer/copiers in the libraries.  A current, activated MAC ID is needed to set up your account.

• Once a Printsmart account has been created,  your transaction activity and account balance can be checked at anytime. (If you receive a message regarding a problem with the security certificate, you can continue and accept the certificate).

• Value can be added to your Printsmart account at the Health Sciences Bookstore (Mediashop) or at any of the Printsmart Pay Stations located in the libraries:
