Printing in Public Computing Areas - Pharos

CUMC IT provides one color and 18 black and white high-speed laser jet printers located throughout the campus: the first two floors of the Hammer building and some student housing locations. A printing quota is required to use these printers. Students currently enrolled in a CUMC program receive their quota automatically. The printers are managed by the Pharos printing system; pages are deducted from the quota after logging in to the Pharos system to print.

Service Description
Anyone with a Pharos printing quota may print on these systems, using either nearby public computers or by configuring their own computer to print using Pharos. All but the color printer have double-sided capabilities. The printers are available on a first-come, first-served basis. After sending a print job to a Pharos queue, the job will remain in the Pharos system for 24 hours before expiring.

Using the Service
Full details on using this service can be found on the Printing on Campus web site.
