Problem Description: I want to print with ACMS printers using my laptop/mobile computer.
This Affects:* Any student with a laptop and ACMS laser printing account.
Solution:
We have recently introduced a new service to support remote printing. It will authorize the computer you're currently using (wired or wireless) to print to a specified ACMS printer. You must have an ACMS Printing Account to use this service.
Details:
Involves connecting to Remote Printing Authorization web page where you will enter your ACMS account's username and password, and choose a printer from a pull-down menu's list of ACMS printers.
Once you sign-in to the service, any print jobs sent from your computer to ACMS printers will be charged to the specified real-money print account. Make sure to keep the browser open during the entire time you are printing. Once you have selected the printer you would like to send your job to, select the model type of the printer you are printing to from the printer menu in the window of your original document (i.e. ACS-Oki B6300n@print.ucsd.edu). The model type of the printer and its location is next to each printer's name that is listed in the drop down menu on the "Remote Printing Authorization" page (i.e. laser7 OkiB6300n, located in ebu3-270b).
To sign off, select "Logout" from the status window. If you close the status window without signing off, printing will continue to be charged to the your account for up to five minutes.
This service is still being developed, and is subject to change at any time. Please direct all questions, concerns, and support inquiries to acs-consult@ucsd.edu.
