Print, Copy and Scan
Your myCard gives you access to print, copy and scan on campus. You may send print jobs through Web Print, from computer stations in classrooms, labs and at computer stations. Add funds online to use your myCard account for printing. In addition to printing, the all-in-one machines allow you to photocopy and scan from (or to) a USB. Tap and hold your myCard until the next display screen and follow the instructions on the screen. Be sure to hit "log out" when your job is finished. There are currently 67 locations accessible to all students to send print jobs.
To print in classrooms and labs, select the printer located in the room, then tap and hold your card in place at the release station to release your job. Be sure to hit "Log Out" when you’re done.

- Available balance in your Pay-for-Print account.
- The name of the printer (i.e. pracad01\B321 Progress B Wing Labs).
- A file in the compatible format.
