| How to Print |
Step 1: Click on the Print function in the File menu in order to print an MS Office document, email, or a web page.
Click on the print ICON in the Adobe Acrobat Reader toolbar to print a PDF File.
Step 2: Select the printer you want to use. The name of the printer is divided into two parts: the room number it is located in and whether it prints in black and white or color. For example: the printer Middleton 109 BW is located in the computer lab on the first floor (room 109) and prints in black and white.
There are TWO printers with the name Middleton 141 BW. One is located in the Reference Department and the other is located in the computer lab in the back of the Reference Department. The document you wish to print will show up at both of these printers.
Step 3: Create a user name and password for the document you are printing. The name you provide distinguishes your documents from another person's documents at the print station. Remember EXACTLY (capital letters, lowercase, symbols, etc.) how you typed your password because you will need to type it in again at the printer station.
Note that depending on where you are located on campus, the Pharos box where you input your name and password may look different like shown above. However the process is still exactly the same. In some areas, the box may only display one line at a time. In that case, you input a name for the print document and press OK. Then the form will ask you for a password and you input that where you just previously inputted your print job name.
Step 4: Pay for your printed document. Printing cost 5¢ per page for black and white documents and 25¢ per page for color documents. In order to pay for printing you MUST use your Tiger Card (LSU ID) or a pre-paid printing card.
- If you have NEVER put money on your Tiger Card you must go to the Tiger Card Office in the Union (Room 207) in order to put money on your card the first time.
- You can add money to your Tiger Card with a credit card through the Tiger Card webpage: http://appl003.lsu.edu/cas/tigercard.nsf/index or with cash at a TigerCash box.
- You can purchase a printing card for $1.00 at any TigerCash box. After you purchase the printing card you have to add money to it in order to print.
There is a TigerCash box located on the first floor of Middleton Library by the photocopiers and also on the first floor of Coates Hall by the photocopier and vending machines.
At the printing station:
- Swipe your Tiger Card or pre-paid printing card through the card reader (located between the printer and the monitor).
- The monitor will then switch screens and you will see a spreadsheet of pending documents.
- Look for the item/s that have the username you entered, select your document/s and click Print.
- Type in your password.
- Click OK and pick up your printed documents.
