ITS Remote Printing

A patron asked if they were able to print from their laptop on campus. This is only able to be done if the patron downloads software from ITS. It's called "UP ITS Remote Printing." Once installed whenever a job printed to that printer, it will ask for their user id and password. To actually retrieve the printout, the patron would need to go a "release station" at one of the few locations where this is possible (currently Pollock 201, Findlay 6, Waring 107, Warnock 108, and Redifer 24). It doesn't appear that they can do this within the library (we are checking on this). This information can be found at http://clc.its.psu.edu/Printing/PharosDistribution/PharosDist.aspx.

This link as well as information on the VPN client are now located in the staff section of the Business Library webpage.

[Eventually, all the library printers will be "release stations." We'll let you know when that happens!] cm
